TAC Anti-bias Leaders Fellowship

Upon the culmination of the 2025 TAC Anti-Bias Fellowship, this program will be on hiatus. 

ADMISSION: On hiatus

The CJM's Teen Art Connect (TAC) Anti-bias Leaders Fellowship is a nine-month long program open to Bay Area high school students that seeks to empower teens with the training and tools to use art in anti-bias learning and activism. Fellows will meet monthly to work alongside artists, educators, and changemakers to build knowledge and leadership skills and develop art-based anti-bias projects. The fellowship includes a $1,000 stipend upon completion of the program and is open to Bay Area teens from all backgrounds who are currently in 9th, 10th, and 11th grades. We value diversity, including diversity in culture, race and ethnicity, and gender expression.

Program FAQ

Participants

This fellowship is for Bay Area high school students in 10th, 11th, and 12th grades. This fellowship is for enthusiastic students who are interested in learning more about how advocacy, anti-bias education, and art can enable youth to fight discrimination in their communities and beyond.

What do Fellows do? 

Fellows reflect on and share their identity stories, explore artists whose work promotes social justice, and learn from leaders and changemakers to better understand their roles and abilities in affecting change in their community. In the spring, Fellows create their own community impact projects and present at the “Teens Leading Change” program, which is open to all San Francisco Bay Area high school students, teachers, and parents. 

Is the Fellowship paid?

All Fellows are awarded a stipend of $1,000 upon completion of the program.
