ArtsLink Projects support US artists, curators, presenters and non-profit arts organizations undertaking projects in Eastern and Central Europe, Russia, Central Asia and the Caucasus. Since 1992, ArtsLink has disbursed nearly $1.5 million in ArtsLink Projects awards. Awards are made in a given discipline on an alternate-year basis: 2009 Visual and Media Arts; 2010 Performing Arts and Literature. Applicants must be working with an artist or organization in that region and projects should be designed to benefit participants and audiences in both the US and the host country. In 2009, applications will be accepted from individual artists, presenters, and non-profit arts organizations working in visual and media arts. ArtsLink has a cycle of alternate year deadlines according to discipline. In 2010, applications will be accepted from individual artists, curators, and non-profit arts organizations working in dance, music, literature and theater. Support is provided to: create new work that draws inspiration from interaction with artists and the community in the country visited; establish mutually beneficial exchange of ideas and expertise between artists, arts organizations, and the local community; pursue artistic cooperation that will enrich creative or professional development, or has potential to expand the community's access to the art of other cultures. Examples of eligible ArtsLink Projects: A US choreographer collaborating with an Estonian composer on new work for an Estonian dance company The collaboration between a US translator and Hungarian writer on the translation and compilation of a body of poetry A US playwright conducting a series of workshops with members of the Slovenian theater community A US festival director visiting several Central European theater festivals to see work and present videos of US artists The selection process is extremely competitive. Applicants should anticipate a highly rigorous review of their work and should demonstrate compelling reasons for wanting to work in the selected country. All ArtsLink applications will be evaluated by peer review panels based on the following review criteria: Artistic excellence and merit of the applicant's work; Quality and feasibility of project plan; Potential for interactive dialogue and benefit of proposed project to both US applicant and overseas participants; Project's potential to bring the benefit of the cross-cultural exchange to other artists or audiences in both the US and the international participant's country. Students, scholars, administrators, critics, and amateur groups are not eligible to apply. In addition, projects focusing solely on research, or the production of an audio recording are not elegible. Applicants must be citizens or permanent residents of the United States. 2008 ArtsLink Projects awardees are not eligible. 2009 ArtsLink Projects awardees will not be eligible to apply again until 2011.
