Programs for Arts and Culture

Emerging Curators Fellowship

The Emerging Curators Fellowship program is a funded opportunity for emerging curators to develop and present two exhibitions at the Robert T. Matsui Gallery inside Sacramento City Hall.

This is a year-long program, where one fellow will produce and mount two exhibitions (each on view for 4 months) with the support of a curatorial mentor. The fellow will receive a stipend and funding for both exhibitions. A mentor will meet with the fellow on a regular basis to help fine tune ideas and provide feedback and guidance on the development of both exhibitions. This program is intended to provide an opportunity to those interested in the visual arts curatorial field, but may not have easy access to funding, locations, or other resources.

UPCOMING 

2026 Emerging Curators Mentor - Jazel Muñoz is a queer Chicanx printmaker, zinester, activist, and curator. In 2022, they became the Gallery Curator and Art Handler for the WAL Public Market Gallery at the Warehouse Artist Lofts. Through their curatorial practice, they prioritize intersectional art while emphasizing the importance of voices from marginalized communities. Recent curations include "Together, We Rise," "Revolutionary Legacies," “Queer Youth Artists”, and "100 Under 100.”

Jazel is a Visual Arts Instructor and Direct Support Provider for artists with disabilities at a local nonprofit art center, Work of Art. Motivated by inclusive and mutual aid values, they actively engage in supporting community-centered events. These include the Latino Center of Art and Culture Zine Fest, the Sacramento Print and Zine Fair, and Sounds of Solidarity 916. They are a resident artist and collaborator at Prism Art Space. Jazel holds a B.A. in Art from the University of California, Santa Cruz.

2026 Emerging Curators Fellow - Lorena Rodríguez is a multidisciplinary artist, cultural practitioner, and peace educator whose work explores the connections between creativity, collective memory, and social transformation. Trained in Peace Studies and Conflict Mediation (ICU, Japan), she has co-created sensory, artistic, and educational experiences across the Americas and Asia that foster social and environmental justice while nurturing collective imagination and systems rooted in care, well-being, and creativity.

Shaped by more than a decade of learning at the crossroads of ancestral wisdom, art, and science, Lorena works through performance, storytelling, poetry, textiles, and culinary art. Her practice cultivates new ways of relating and opens spaces for dialogue, reflection, and unlearning around issues of diversity, knowledge, and resistance. In 2023, she co-founded Chicha Fest, a community-based process that builds collective art experiences and serves as a grassroots school for sustainable agriculture, art and science in Sacramento. Lorena has over a decade of experience working alongside Indigenous and folk communities of the Abya Yala.

In California, she worked for years with Latine communities impacted by incarceration, particularly those affected by the death penalty. These experiences also shape her creative vision.

Her artistic practice is also inspired by her exploration of her own roots and by her experience as a brown, mestiza, migrant woman. Lorena’s work moves beyond aesthetic contemplation and spectacle, positioning art as a catalyst for collective care and a medium through which other forms of coexistence can emerge.
