The Phillips Library at the Peabody Essex Museum (PEM) awards one Francis E. Malamy Research Fellowship to a recipient to perform independent scholarly research at the Philips Library in Rowley, Massachusetts within a three month time-frame. Research must include use of archival materials held at the Phillips Library and/or archiving activities under the direction of the Phillips Library staff. The Peabody Essex is one of the nation's major museums for Asian art, including Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Indian art, along with the finest collection of Asian Export art extant and 19th-century Asian photography. It presents the earliest collections of Native American and Oceanic art in the nation — all collections of exceptional standing. The historic houses and gardens, and American decorative art and maritime art collections provide an unrivaled spectrum of New England's heritage over 300 years. The recipient will receive a $5,500 award, payable in two equal installments, at the middle and conclusion of their residency. This fellowship does not include housing. Fellows are expected to be in residence for a minimum of eight weeks. Though it is not expected that a fellow be in residence for eight consecutive weeks, it is expected that the fellow not divide their residency into more than two terms.
