The Art Prospect Fellows project brings artists and curators from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bulgaria, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan to the US to explore socially engaged art and public art. The program includes in-depth site visits and meetings at leading contemporary arts organizations, such as the Whitney Museum, New Museum, Creative Time, CulturePush, Art in Odd Places, and the Laundromat Project, among others; informal discussions with US artists working in the fields of street art, public art, and socially engaged art; hands-on workshops; artist studio visits; and excursions to view public art works in New York. Participants are accompanied by bilingual CEC ArtsLink staff throughout the program.
Since 2003, more than 200 artists and curators have participated in these study visits, formerly known as the Arts Leadership Fellows (2008-2018) and Jubilee Fellows (2003-2007).
