"Thank you ArtsLink for helping to keep the international arts dialogue flowing…. The Fellows program fosters deep, long-term relationships and networks that last long after the official program ends."

"I am deeply grateful for having been selected for participation in Open World. Without exaggeration, I returned a changed person. The trip became an optical lens that allowed me to see the world differently!... America turned out to be completely unlike the realm of my daily life – and this was absolutely great."

— Sergei Kachkin, filmmaker, Russia
