We’re fueling a Roadtrip Nation initiative to send three people across the country to meet with folks across a wide range of careers—arts-related and not—whose paths were made possible because of their arts experiences. Along the way, these individuals will gain real-world insights, career inspiration, and invaluable mentorship—all while being filmed for Roadtrip Nation’s public television series. If you know someone who would benefit from this opportunity, please share the application link with them! Deadline to apply is Dec. 21, 2025.
Apply now and get ready for the adventure of a lifetime—and help us show how vital and important the arts are for all of us.
Who We’re Looking for:
- You are 18+ years old
- You have engaged with arts learning or creative programs (in visual arts, music, dance, theater, literary arts, digital arts and media, or cultural arts) in some way in your local community or at school
- That could look like: being in an arts program, having been involved in arts experiences in some way at some point, or having an interest and wanting to find a way to lead a creative life.
- Note: You don’t have to be currently enrolled in a program!
- You’re excited to explore a lot of different career paths.
- You are at the beginning of your career journey, and are curious to explore how your creative experiences can influence your life and career possibilities.
