The Terra Foundation for American Art Research Travel Grants provides support to doctoral, postdoctoral, and senior scholars from both the US and outside the US for research topics dedicated to the art and visual culture of the United States prior to 1980.

The Terra Foundation prioritizes projects that interrogate and broaden definitions of American art and lends support for projects engaged in transforming or complicating how the story of American art is told. To expand histories of American art, we encourage projects that reflect a commitment to inclusive and equitable research and museum practice; generate new scholarship and interpretive frameworks; employ critical methodologies and innovative models; and/or engage diverse partners and audiences.

The Terra Foundation for American Art Research Travel Grants foster firsthand engagement with American artworks and art-historical resources; build networks for non-US-based scholars studying American art; and expand access to artworks, scholarly materials, and communities for US-based scholars studying American art in an international context.

The Terra Foundation for American Art Research Travel Grants program is subject to change pending COVID-19 travel restrictions.

Eligibility

Mentor eligibility: The Mentor must be a member of the Wilson Ornithological Society at the time of application; must maintain membership through the period during which the research is done; and must be a member in good standing during the year in which the student presents the results at the WOS annual meeting. Receipt of funds supporting attendance at the meeting by both the student(s) and the Mentor will be contingent on the Mentor’s continuing active membership in the WOS.

Student eligibility: The student(s) to be mentored must at the time of application be enrolled in an institution of higher education and actively working toward a bachelor’s degree, but not necessarily at the same institution as the mentor. The mentor could, for example, be an ornithologist working for a not-for-profit organization who mentors undergraduates at a local college. Ideally, applications should come from students not yet in their senior year; however, projects involving work done in the spring/summer immediately following graduation may be considered as long as the proposal includes a clear indication that the student is likely to continue work in ornithology in some capacity (e.g., graduate study or employment).

Number of awards: Each Mentor-student team is restricted to a single award. No Mentor may be supported by two awards concurrently: a Mentor who received an award for research conducted in a given year (e.g., 2020) would need to wait until the next full application cycle (e.g., deadline of 15 December 2022) to apply for support of another student.

Benefits

The WOS will annually award up to two grants of $1,000 each to research projects that demonstrate the greatest capacity for mentoring and collaboration with at least one undergraduate. In addition, each mentor-student team will receive up to $2,000 (i.e., up to $1000 for the faculty mentor and $1000 for the student researcher(s)) to attend a subsequent annual meeting of the Wilson Ornithological Society where the student(s) will present the findings of their grant-supported work.

Application Process

Applications will be due annually on 15 December, with a committee decision made early in the next calendar year. (NOTE: DEADLINE FOR CURRENT CYCLE EXTENDED TO JANUARY 15, 2022.) Initial funds to support the research ($1000) will be available by 1 March. Recipients must complete the project no later than 1 April of the following year (for example, for an application submitted in December 2020 in support of work to be completed in summer 2021, the team must complete the project by 1 April 2022).

All application materials from the mentor and student should be submitted via the Application Portal. Please direct any questions about the application process to Kerri Cornell Duerr (duerrkc@westminster.edu), the award administrator.
