In education, MoHA’s ongoing fellowship program hosts 1-5 paid fellowship positions each year. These fellowships focus on professional development in the categories of: grant writing, event production, arts administration, and digital arts. These partnerships give student employees government-subsidized paid work experience in a arts organization and exposure to diverse artists and community organizers, and also raise the visibility of programming and work created by residents among the student population. Students that have graduated from this program have gone on to write successful individual grant applications independent of the organization as well as establish careers in the non-profit and creative industry. Students who have decided to stay in academia have gone on to masters programs and fellowships at Harvard, MIT, Carnegie Mellon and SMU.
