2023 Asia Grant Cycle Applications
2022/10/14
The ACC makes fellowships and grants to support cultural exchange in the arts for practicing artists, scholars, and arts professionals.
Priority is given to process-driven activities that enable cultural immersion, relationship-building, collaboration, or the exchange of knowledge among peers. Examples of process-driven activities include research, training, study, and exploration. ACC fellowships and grants are not intended for production-focused activities such as touring, performing, exhibiting, publishing, or making work.
In addition to funding, ACC offers logistical and programmatic support to its fellowship and grant recipients. The level of support varies by fellowship or grant type and by destination country. Support may include recommendations of sites to visit or activities to participate in; personal introductions to relevant contacts; J-1 visa sponsorship for individuals traveling to the U.S.; and access to the global ACC community of alumni and partners. ACC has supported over 6,000 exchanges since 1964. By combining funding with advice, feedback, and personal introductions, ACC's program builds relationships that strengthen cross-cultural ties beyond the duration of the grant.
Applications will be accepted from November 1 - 30, 2022. Please review the grant and fellowship guidelines to determine your eligibility and access the full application materials: https://www.asianculturalcouncil.org/our-work/programs/fellowships-and-grants
