The Charles E. Peterson Fellowship is an annual opportunity offered by the Society of Architectural Historians in partnership with the Athenaeum of Philadelphia. It supports a graduate student in researching and writing new content for SAH Archipedia, the Society’s digital architectural resource. The fellowship encourages original scholarly contributions that document and interpret the built environment, particularly aspects of American architecture and urbanism prior to 1860, including Indigenous, Spanish Colonial, and African American topics. The work culminates in digital publication, providing emerging scholars with a unique platform to share their research with a broad audience.
