SOZO Fellowship is a groundbreaking, six-month virtual coaching program (June–December 2026) designed to equip busy, full-time, mid-career independent artists with the tools to build sustainable, thriving careers. Through a structured cohort experience, SOZO Fellowship supports creative practitioners in leading with their expansive vision and unlocking their fullest potential.
In response to systemic gaps in artist support, SOZO developed the Artists and Producers as Entrepreneurs and Changemakers (APEC) framework to foster resiliency and entrepreneurial mindset for independent artists. Through this holistic approach, fellows engage in conversations and workshops with leading experts in fundraising, brand partnership, artist management, and more.
Designed and co-facilitated by experts from the Wellness, Finance, and Startup sectors, SOZO Fellowship provides a dynamic space for collective learning, deep reflection and real-world strategies—empowering artists to confidently envision and shape their futures.
This is a paid fellowship opportunity. Upon full participation and completion of the fellowship, each selected fellow will receive a $1,500 honorarium.
