Projecting Fellows, a free, virtual, five-evening symposium hosted by the University of Virginia School of Architecture, launches Tuesday, January 5th, 2021 and proceeds weekly on Tuesday evenings from 6-8 pm EST through February 2nd, 2021. The event series brings together the 2019-2020 class of fellows from American architecture schools to explore a cross section of emerging interests in the discipline and the vehicle of the fellowship project.
Each year, several architecture schools nationwide name fellows to join their programs and develop an intensive research or teaching project during a short-term appointment. With the fellowship comes some combination of project support, cross-pollination between research and teaching, and a platform with which to present and exhibit the work. Commonly selected via national call for proposals, fellowship projects are dually indicative of emerging interests in academia and evolving institutional agendas. While each school supports the development and dissemination of fellowship work, no comprehensive venue for dialogue between fellows has taken shape.
