The Jeffrey Ahn, Jr. Fellowship, founded in 2014, is dedicated to nurturing creative talent and independence in young individuals. This merit-based award welcomes artists up to the age of 17, from any background or country, to submit proposals for the independent creation of artworks.

The Fellowship provides up to $10,000 of funding for the chosen Fellow's project, covering expenses such as materials, museum or gallery admission, and creative instruction. The winning Fellow is selected by a distinguished jury of artists, curators, gallerists, and established professionals in the arts. The Fellowship believes that early recognition, trust, and support will help foster lifelong independence and creativity in their Fellows.

This initiative honors the creativity and independence of Jeffrey Ahn, Jr. (1995-2012) while empowering young artists to strengthen their skills and talent
