BOUMAN FELLOWSHIP
​2024-25

Applications are now open!

We are excited to offer three fellowships this year. ​

A $1000 commission to write a new piece to be premiered by one of the following

Workshops with the performing ensemble/soloist

Mentorship throughout the writing process with Kinds of Kings

The Kinds of Kings Bouman Fellowship is an advocacy, access, and amplification program for composers with historically-marginalized identities in the early stages of their composing careers. Named after computer scientist Dr Katie Bouman, whose team gave the world the first image of a black hole, the Bouman Fellowship program's goals are:
​​
-
to support and advocate for early-career composers
-
to create opportunities for composers from historically marginalized groups, and
-
to cultivate a sense of community and support. ​
