The ArtsLink International Fellowship Program prioritizes applicants whose social practices seek to actively engage communities on issues related to the current climate emergency and human rights. We will actively encourage artists and arts leaders whose work is making a vital contribution to furthering people’s awareness, understanding, and active participation in environmental and/or social justice issues.

Eligibility Requirements

  • CEC ArtsLink will accept applications from contemporary artists, curators, and arts leaders whose work is informed by community engagement processes or social practice. Applicants must be citizens of one of the network countries.
  • If you are living outside the region temporarily, please contact CEC ArtsLink staff to discuss your eligibility.
  • There are no age limitations. Applicants must have sufficient knowledge of English to function independently in the US.
  • Undergraduate students, non-professionals and research scholars are not eligible. Arts leaders/curators must be affiliated with an arts organization in the non-commercial sector or work as individual independent arts professionals.
  • Artists seeking placement in commercial firms are ineligible. ArtsLink International Fellows from prior years cannot re-apply.

Benefits

  • ArtsLink International Fellowships awards offer an initial honorarium to Fellows and US hosts to cover the research residency and support for the subsequent project in the US to cover visa and travel, food and lodging, health insurance, and up to 50% of production costs.
