Nagelberg Scholars
Lauren Trossman and Jonathan Bock, Nagelberg Fellows at the Baruch Performing Arts Center 2024-2025
Fellowships
The Nagelberg Fellowship is the opportunity for students to work as fellows in either the Mishkin Gallery or the Baruch Performing Arts Center (Baruch PAC). Fellows work under the direction of Alaina Claire Feldman, Director of the Mishkin Gallery or Howard Sherman, Director of the Baruch Performing Arts Center. Fellows receive on-the-ground experience in arts administration, including direct input and projects that work to promote the mission and season of both Baruch PAC and the Mishkin Gallery.
Each fellowship starts in September and continues through June of the following year. Graduate assistant fellows are typically paid $20 hourly for a 40-week appointment: 20 hours weekly for a maximum yearly award of up to $12,800. Open to both domestic and international students.

All applicants to the MA in Arts Administration program are welcome and eligible to apply for a Nagelberg Scholarship. For Fall 2024 the Nagelberg Scholarship committee expects to award a few scholarships to incoming MA in Arts Administration students in the amount of $1,500.
