About the fellowship: Applications are now open for the Fall 2025 session of the New York City Fellowship, a program that provides a project production grant, mentorship, and hands-on arts administration experience for early-career photographers and photojournalists based in NYC. Developed in response to the financial challenges faced by working photographers, the fellowship supports both the advancement of fellows’ creative projects and offers paid, practical experience within the Magnum Foundation office.

Applicants should have at least one completed long-term project and may include recent graduates and self-taught photographers. The fellowship is open to photographers of all ages.
The fellowship is designed for New York City based photographers and does not provide room and board or transportation.
What you get: $5,000 production grant provided at the beginning of the fellowship to cover costs associated with the production, completion and distribution of your NYC-based project. An additional $25/hr for the 16 hrs/week spent in-office on arts administration work, paid bi-weekly .
