Gallery Route One (GRO) is sponsoring two 12-month Fellowships from January 2025 – December 2025.

The Fellowships provide emerging artists, age 21- 40, opportunities to participate in a vibrant, nonprofit gallery with an experienced gallery staff and practicing artist members.

Fellowship support is reciprocal, and, in that regard, we look forward to what Fellows bring to the gallery by way of fresh artistic expression and perspectives. It is our hope that Fellowship opportunities will work as a catalyst for accelerated artistic growth for Fellows and Artist Members alike.

GRO Fellows have an opportunity to show their work in up to 6 exhibitions including one solo show and one 2-person show and will receive a $1000 stipend to offset the associated costs. Fellows are high-lighted in GRO marketing and promotions.

Who may apply:

Artists living in the Greater San Francisco Bay Area, convenient to Point Reyes Station, and working in any fine art medium. Fellowships are open to Emerging Artists ages 21-40. BIPOC artists are encouraged to apply.
