After completing the Online and In Person Residencies, a small number of ArtsLink International Fellows are invited to apply for co-production support to undertake projects wherever they call home, in collaboration with US non-profit arts organizations and/or individual artists. By developing a project with their new collaborators, Fellows, hosts and other engaged artists catalyze transnational networks and share their practices more widely. Furthermore, after their own residency experience, Fellows are able to host their US counterparts, inviting them into new, rich contexts for their own work.

Support is provided to create a new work or project that draws inspiration from interaction with artists and communities in the US; to establish a mutually beneficial exchange of ideas and expertise between artists; arts organizations and Fellows’ communities at home; and to pursue artistic cooperation that will expand the community’s access to artists and artistic practices from abroad. Applicants must be citizens of an eligible country.

The award amount cannot exceed $7,500 and should not be more than 50% of the total project cost. Matching project support can be in- kind support from other project partners.

This opportunity is for the Fellows from the most recent cohort by invitation, upon completing the Online and In Person Residencies, as the third and final phase of their ArtsLink Fellowship. Fellows from prior years or artists not involved in the AIF program are not eligible for this home project support.

The invited Fellows will communicate directly with our Program Director, Fellowships with the following details:

• Please describe the project you would like to create in your home country, including its relationship to your US in-person residency.
• Please indicate project partner organizations or individuals and their role(s).
• Please include a summary budget detailing your financial need (up to $7500) as well as other funding partners. Keep in mind, these are co-creation funds and should not be more than 50% of the total project cost. Matching project support can be in- kind support (space, time, materials, resources, etc.) from other project partners.
