2025 Blakemore Freeman Fellowships and Blakemore Fellowships

Fellowships are awarded for one academic year of full-time, intensive language study of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, or Khmer at the advanced level in approved language programs in East or Southeast Asia. Applicants must be American citizens or permanent residents of the United States.

Who should apply?

The Blakemore Foundation is looking for high-achieving individuals who will make significant contributions to their field. The ideal candidate is someone with stellar grades, outstanding recommendations, and a demonstrated commitment to the Asian country and language. Beyond commitment, we are looking for purpose: a career path that will benefit from professional fluency in that modern Asian language throughout that individual's life. Superior candidates pursuing careers in fields such as academia, STEM (science, technology, engineering, math), environmental studies, international business, accounting, law, medicine, journalism, architecture, teaching, social or NGO work, and government service are encouraged to apply.

2025 Blakemore Kingfisher Art History Language Fellowships

Blakemore Kingfisher Art History Language Fellowships are awarded for nine to twelve months of full-time, intensive Chinese or Korean language study in approved language programs in East Asia. These grants are open to citizens and permanent residents of the United States or Canada, and to foreign nationals who are studying at colleges or universities in the U.S. or Canada, who are at or near an advanced level in the language and intending to pursue an academic career in Chinese or Korean art history.

What Type of Candidate Should Apply?

The ideal candidate is someone with stellar grades, outstanding recommendations, and a demonstrated commitment to art historical scholarship who will make significant contributions to the study of Chinese or Korean art history prior to the 20th century. Beyond commitment, we are looking for purpose: a clear plan for continuing one’s art historical training during the year following the fellowship (ideally in the same country as the language program), and a sense of the topics the candidate ultimately hopes to pursue for their PhD. Candidates from underrepresented backgrounds are encouraged to apply.
