The Processing Foundation is currently accepting applications for the 2022 Fellowship Program. The Processing Foundation Fellowship program supports artists, designers, activists, educators, engineers, researchers, coders, and collectives—and many combinations of these—in projects that conceive new directions for what our software, our community, and open source can do. Fellowships are an essential element of our Foundation’s work in developing tools of community power, connection, stewardship and in nurturing the aims and needs of the people and communities who use our software. Applicants can be of any skill level or background, and we emphasize projects that will have a significant impact on the fellow’s practice and resources.

Fellows are awarded a $3,000 USD stipend for 100 hours of work. Fellows based anywhere in the world work closely with mentors from our community, and we provide them with infrastructural, technical, and practical resources. You can read articles from past fellows in their own words here. The application deadline is May 1, 2022. This year we have 7 fellowships and 4 teaching fellowships available.
