Wendy Snyder MacNeil Research Fellowship

Since 2014, The Image Centre has offered a variety of fellowships for research related to photography. Research fellows have the opportunity to study select areas of The Image Centre's photography collections first-hand.

The Wendy Snyder MacNeil Research Fellowship includes a $2,500 (CAD) stipend for travel, research and other related expenses but does not include access to production facilities such as printing labs and darkrooms. Candidates should possess or be working towards at least an undergraduate degree, and/or be photo-based artists with an interest in extended forms of portraiture. Candidates’ research should utilize the MacNeil archive as well as other resources of The Image Centre and/or Toronto Metropolitan University Archives and Special Collections. The selected fellow will be expected to carry out research on-site for a minimum of one (1) to a maximum of four (4) weeks, July 1st, 2026 and January 15, 2027.
