The BAA College Fellowship Show is open to Berkshire County, Massachusetts residents enrolled at the undergraduate level as art majors at any college in the country, as well as non-residents majoring in art at a Berkshire County college; Berkshire Community College, MCLA, Williams, and Simon’s Rock.
The BAA board has set a goal of awarding a total of $5000 in fellowship awards. The BAA College Fellowship is funded in part by the Norman and Rose Avnet Fellowship Endowment and supplemental private donations. In 2021 and 2022, the Feigenbaum Foundation funded the fellowship award. Additionally, local artists support the Fellowship through their donations of 10x10 inch art to the 10x10 RAP (Real Art Party) which is held at the Berkshire Museum on Thursday, February 23, 2023 as part of the City of Pittsfield’s 10x10 Festival.
