Getty Scholars Program 2025-2026

Applications are now open for the Getty Scholars Program 2025-2026. The Getty Scholars Program encourages innovative research into art and its histories by providing a forum for international scholars to form collaborations across disciplines and professional practices, as well as developing new audiences for their work.

During their residency, the scholar cohort is immersed in a vibrant local community dedicated to knowledge advancement and hosted by an institution dedicated to preserving, understanding, interpreting, and sharing its extensive library and collections. Scholars may reside at the Getty Center or the Getty Villa.

Since 1985, the Getty Scholars Program has hosted around 1,300 residential scholars from over fifty countries to conduct research on topics related to the annual theme while residing in Los Angeles. Selected projects have spanned geographical regions and time periods, from ancient to contemporary eras. Getty receives between 300 and 400 applications each year and awards fellowships to about twenty applicants annually.
