## Board of curators

One cannot apply for a fellowship at this Künstlerhaus: The fellows are invited by a board of curators. The members of the board are appointed for a three-year term by the Bavarian Minister for Science and the Arts. In accordance with the statutes of the Künstlerhaus, individual board members can be appointed repeatedly.
