The DC History Center is thrilled to present two Totman Fellowships for summer 2025 through spring 2026: one focused on research on LGBTQ+ DC and one focused on research relating to Black Washington (intersectional projects addressing one or both topics are welcomed), thanks to generous donor support.
Fellowships at the DC History Center aim to nurture emerging champions and scholars of DC history while encouraging visibility of our connections and collections. Through stipends, dedicated workspace, and mentorship, the Fellowships provide scholars with resources and an intellectual community to develop new research, public outreach, and publications.
This is aligned with our mission to deepen understanding of our city’s past to connect, empower, and inspire.
