 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
