The Arts Educator Fellowship Grant, offered by the Alaska State Council on the Arts, is designed to support the artistic and professional growth of Alaska's K-12 arts educators. The fellowship provides funding for teachers to pursue activities that enhance their own artistic skills and creativity—such as workshops, residencies, mentorships, or the creation of new work—with the goal of enriching arts education across the state. After completing their fellowship, awardees may also receive additional support for projects that engage their classrooms or communities, further amplifying the impact of their professional development.
