International Fellowships 2021 Open Call
ArtsLink International Fellowships 2021 Open Call
CEC ArtsLink invites artists, arts leaders and curators from all arts disciplines from 37 eligible countries to apply for the ArtsLink International Fellowships 2021. The multi-year Fellowships are framed by the creative process, artistic intention, and an active commitment to community engagement and dialogue. The initial six-week Residencies will take place in autumn 2021.
CEC ArtsLink individually curates each Fellowship, hosted by established US non-profit arts organizations across the country, and covers all associated living, working, travel, and health insurance costs. This year, the pandemic necessitated a new flexible model for the Residencies with the Fellows and host organizations collaborating through online dialogues, virtual networking, and research in preparation for projects that will take place when feasible. CEC ArtsLink remains committed to the Residencies in 2021 with the understanding that the uncertainties of the pandemic might require new approaches to supporting Fellows and host organizations.
Applicants do not need to have contacts with organizations in the US to apply for this program, but proficiency in English is required.
Application Deadline: October 30, 2020
