The Hopkins Center Fellowship Program values student agency. Overseen by The Office of Fellowships and Student Initiatives and Staff Mentors, its experiential learning core calls students to gain transferable skills via work at The Hopkins Center of the Arts, build capacity by generating student arts-based events, and immerse in career development and artistic excursions.
