Thank you for your interest in the Global Impact Musician Fellowship Program Cohort 2.

The Global Impact Musician Fellowship is a two-year hybrid program for musicians committed to leadership, cross-cultural and cross-sector collaboration, and community impact through music. Fellows participate in weekly online sessions, mentorship, collaborative projects, and a culminating in-person Educational Seminar in partnership with University of Wisconsin-Madison.

This application helps us learn more about your eligibility, musical background, leadership experience, community engagement, and interest in using music as a platform for meaningful connection and social impact.

Finalists selected from the written application will be invited to participate in an interview round as part of the selection process:

• Interviews take place from August 1st-19th, 2026. 

• Cohort 2 is announced on August 24th, 2026.
