The Berger Trust Future Leaders Fellowship in the History of British Art is a variable-term residential fellowship designed for early career scholars and museum professionals. The fellowship supports research in the history of British art, broadly defined to include visual culture in the United Kingdom as well as in the British Empire, Commonwealth, and post-Commonwealth nations. Fellows will divide their residency between The Huntington Library in California and Trinity Hall, Cambridge, spending at least one month at each institution and distributing the remainder of their fellowship as they choose (for a total duration of 2 to 10 months). The program aims to foster scholarly work that benefits from the collections and intellectual communities of both institutions.
