The posting

Welcome to the official site for employment opportunities at MICA. At MICA, we empower our employees to use their talent in a variety of ways. We are pleased that you are interested in career opportunities offered at MICA.

Fellowship Overview:

The France-Merrick Fellowship represents one of MICA’s most distinguished opportunities for student leadership in community engagement and socially

engaged art. France-Merrick Fellows (FMFs) serve as ambassadors of MICA’s commitment to the transformative power of art within the Baltimore community. Through their work, FMFs cultivate meaningful partnerships between MICA students and local organizations, leading thoughtful dialogue, facilitating collaborative projects, and fostering sustainable connections between campus and community.

As mentors to Community Site Leaders (CSLs), FMFs provide guidance, inspiration, and insight. They also advise the Community Art & Service Program and the Office of Mission Community Learning on strengthening MICA’s role in advancing socially engaged art and supporting artists who are dedicated to civic impact. France-Merrick Fellows exemplify leadership through action, leveraging MICA’s resources and their own artistic practice to empower creativity, collaboration, and community change.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Support Community Partnerships: Collaborate with CAS & Mission staff to strengthen and sustain partnerships between MICA and Baltimore-based community organizations
  • Commitment and Hours: Serve for a full academic year (two semesters), completing approximately 120 hours per semester (averaging 6–8 hours per week).

  • Cohort Engagement: Actively participate in monthly France-Merrick Fellow cohort meetings, contributing to collective reflection, peer learning, and program development.
  • Preparation and Planning: Dedicate at least three hours per week to planning lessons, activities, or project development. These sessions will be self-directed but held in designated campus spaces such as the Office of Mission & Community Learning. Occasionally, this preparation time may be directed toward special CAS projects as assigned.
  • Mentorship: Serve as a mentor to assigned Community Site Leaders (CSLs) through both in-person meetings and electronic communication, offering guidance, encouragement, and professional insight.
  • Program and Event Support: Assist in the implementation of the annual Community Art + Service Exhibition and Festival, helping to showcase student and community collaborative projects.
  • Documentation and Reporting: Submit a comprehensive written report at the conclusion of the academic year, outlining project outcomes, accomplishments, challenges, and proposed next steps.
  • Advocacy and Representation: Be available to meet with funders, MICA’s Office of Advancement, and other institutional representatives to present and discuss ongoing community initiatives when requested.
