Research Fellowships at the Massachusetts Historical Society, 2023-2024

Cassie Cloutier Discussion

The Massachusetts Historical Society will offer dozens of research fellowships for the 2023-2024 academic year, ranging from short-term support to long-term residency. The MHS collections primarily consist of manuscripts, as well as books, pamphlets, maps, newspapers, graphics, photographs, works of art, and historical artifacts.

In addition to receiving funding, MHS Research Fellows become part of a scholarly community that includes other current fellows, MHS staff, Boston-area scholars, and former fellows. They may participate in our Brown Bag Lunch Series, present their own research, attend seminars, and join MHS staff and other fellows for weekly coffees.

For the latest information regarding fellowship offerings during and in the wake of Covid restrictions, please see our website
