Get matched →The National Endowment for the Arts cooperates with the U.S. Japan Friendship Commission in the implementation of the U.S./Japan Creative Artists’ Program. This program provides support for up to five outstanding contemporary or traditional artists from the United States to spend a three-month residency in Japan. The program is extremely competitive; applicants should have regional or national recognition and anticipate a highly rigorous review of their work. Artists should also present compelling reasons for wanting to work in Japan.
Selected artists will receive a grant to cover housing, living, and professional expenses for either one artist or a collaborative team, and round trip transportation for the artist.
