About the Organization

Bow Seat provides an innovative space for teens to connect, create, and communicate for our blue planet. Working at the intersection of ocean science and arts education, our award-winning programming emphasizes creative thinking and making in exploring the natural world. Our flagship educational initiative, the Ocean Awareness Contest, is the world’s largest environmental youth program for the creative arts.

About the Fellowship

The True Blue Fellowship (formerly the Fellowship Grant Program) aims to connect and empower youth around the world to leverage the creative arts to enact change in local communities to safeguard the ocean, waterways, and the climate. If you want to make a difference in your community, we invite you to participate in the True Blue Fellowship! The Fellowship is an initiative originally created and led by the Future Blue Youth Council (FBYC), a diverse group of Bow Seat alumni working together to empower their peers to advocate for a healthy, sustainable, and equitable future.

The True Blue Fellowship provides mentorship, capacity building, and funding of up to $2,500 for 10 youth-led projects that address ocean, waterways, and/or climate change issues in their local communities through a creative arts lens.

• Utilize the creative arts as the primary method for awareness and/or action.
• Co-create with and engage others in your local community
• Have a tangible impact on your local community and environment
