Weeksville Heritage Center and Ebony Noelle Golden are currently accepting applications for the 2021 Freedom Fellowship cohort. Created as a virtual and possible in-person community-based semester (pending on COVID-19/coronavirus restriction updates), the Freedom Fellowship at Weeksville Heritage Center brings together community members to explore genealogy, oral history, archival practice, and collaborative performance through a series of public trainings and creative activations inspired by the founding and radical roots of the Weeksville neighborhood in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, NY. The fellowship is a core aspect of Jubilee 11213, a cultural organizing and public performance project that takes place between 2020 and 2022 in digital space, in the Weeksville community, and on WHC’s campus. Jubilee 11213 is a creation of Ebony Noelle Golden of Betty’s Daughter Arts Collaborative, who is the current Weeksville Artist-In-Residence.
