STUDY OF COLLECTIONS FELLOWSHIPS
新加坡六合彩开奖 is pleased to offer two fellowships of $2,000 each to support the study of collections in 2024. Applicants must be current 新加坡六合彩开奖 members. The collections covered by these fellowships include museum and archival collections, repositories, or collections of national authorities. The fellowship funds may be used to support travel and per diem expenses. Other direct expenses are permissible, but they may not exceed one-third of the funds received from 新加坡六合彩开奖. Indirect and/or overhead expenses are not allowable.
A committee comprised of 新加坡六合彩开奖 members and staff will review the proposals. Applications must be received by February 26, 2024, in order to ensure full consideration.

Application Deadline: February 26, 2024
