Deadline for the U.S./Japan Creative Artists' Program: March 1, 2012
Dear Colleague,
Please forward this information about a funding opportunity through the
Japan-U.S. Friendship Commission to any and all professional creative artists
on your email lists. The National Endowment for the Arts cooperates with the
U.S. Japan Friendship Commission in the implementation of this program. The
U.S/Japan Creative Artists' Program provides support for up to five outstanding
contemporary or traditional artists from the United States to spend a
three-month residency in Japan. Eligible applicants are architects,
choreographers, composers, creative writers, designers, media artists,
playwrights, visual artists, or solo theater artists who work with original
material (including puppeteers, storytellers and performance artists).
Multidisciplinary artists and artistic directors of theater or dance companies
are also eligible.
The next deadline for this program is March 1, 2012 for residencies in 2013.
The U.S/Japan Creative Artists' Program is extremely competitive; applicants
should have regional or national recognition and anticipate a highly rigorous
review of their work. Artists should also present compelling reasons for
wanting to work in Japan.
Selected artists will receive:
A grant award in the amount of $20,000 to cover housing, living, and
professional expenses
Up to $2,000 for round trip transportation for the artist
Additional information, including guidelines and the application, can be found
