The VISION Fellowship emerges from the need to support developing AAPI artists, in collegiate or university settings, with support to immerse themself within the field and work being showcased. This $750 financial reimbursement allows space for a Fellow to cultivate a voice for themself by seeing performances and engaging with the arts community in addition to their collegiate development.
