During the fall of 2025, Elliot Montague was a MacDowell fellow for Film/Video Arts and was an artist-in-residence at The Studios at MASS MoCA.
Elliot Montague was a script consultant for Ocean Vuong’s screenplay adaptation of Vuong’s acclaimed novel On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous.
Elliot Montague presented his film, "Light on a Path, Follow", as part of the Trans*Revolutions Virtual Symposium, presented by Barnard Center for Research on Women.
