APT Curatorial Fellowships
In 2012 APT launched the Curatorial Fellowship as an opportunity for curators and artists to make expansive use of the gallery to encourage diversity and innovation. By delivering the Curatorial Fellowship, APT aims to build new audiences and engage with a wider arts community to develop an international profile.

The Curatorial Fellowship is a two-month long funded exhibition opportunity available to both artists and curators. Selections are made from proposals submitted to the Gallery Selection Committee. It was developed from the APT Exhibition Bursary awarded to Wayne Lucas in 2010.

APT’s Gallery and Projects selection panel is comprised of elected artist-members of APT and their combined experience, as practising artists working in higher education and in the public realm, puts them in a strong position to oversee the gallery programme to encourage future development.
