Would you like to see your own stories on this page? As part of its commitment to covering Denver, Westword is offering a paid news-reporting fellowship, with a start date in August.
Our fellowship program presents an unparalleled opportunity for young writers who wish to pursue a career in local watchdog journalism. Our fellowships are writing and reporting jobs; our fellows don’t compile listings, go for coffee or complete research for other writers. Instead, they work intensively with an experienced mentor to produce high-impact locally reported journalism. This is not a remote position: Our office is open, with plenty of space to socially distance.
Our fellowships are six-month jobs that pay $650 per week, with benefits. You can learn more about the program here.
Interested parties should email a cover letter, résumé and writing/reporting samples to:
Andy Van De Voorde, Executive Associate Editor, Voice Media Group andy.vandevoorde@voicemediagroup.com
Will you step up to support Westword this year?
We’re aiming to raise $50,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to this community. If Westword matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.
