Selection Process 

ACC staff first review applications to confirm eligibility. Applications that do not meet the criteria, including those considered production grants, will not move forward. Eligible applications are then reviewed by experts across disciplines—including ACC alumni—who serve as panelists/jurors. Short-listed candidates are invited for a virtual interview. Final selections are approved by ACC’s Global Board of Trustees. 

What does the New York Fellowship offer? 

Freedom to Explore: Fellows immerse themselves in New York City and U.S. cultural life—attending performances, exhibitions, workshops, and discussions—to inform their practice and broaden their perspectives. 

Peer-Learning and Exchange: Fellows join a diverse cohort from across Asia, sharing artistic perspectives, learning from one another, and building lasting connections. 

ACC Activities and Events: ACC organizes group activities that may include visits to arts and cultural institutions and attending performances and gatherings with local ACC alumni and artists in New York City. 

Individualized Programmatic and Logistical Support: ACC staff provide guidance on living in New York, achieving grant objectives, and connecting fellows with alumni and resources to support their fellowship activities. 

Subject to availability, New York Fellows may live at the International House (I-House), with fees deducted from the ACC grant (see “Grant Amounts and Payments” section). Fellows may also arrange their own housing, however, ACC cannot assist or assume responsibility for independent arrangements. 

Additional Eligibility Requirements for the New York Fellowship 

In addition to the general eligibility requirements, New York Fellowship applicants must: 

• Be a citizen or legal permanent resident of an ACC-eligible country, territory, or region. (U.S. citizens and U.S. permanent residents are not eligible).  

• Be at least 21 years old by the start of the fellowship.   

• Not pursue paid work, university coursework, or teaching (in-person or online) during the fellowship. ACC asks grantees to take temporary leave from studies and work during the fellowship.

• Not have previously received a New York Fellowship. 

Fellowship Period 

Fellows must commit to the full six-month New York Fellowship during one of the two cohort periods below. Applicants can indicate a preference, but ACC makes the final assignment of cohorts: 

• January 1, 2028 – June 30, 2028  

• July 1, 2028 – December 31, 2028 

Fellows must arrive in the U.S. by the first week of the program and stay until the last week of the program period. 

Fellowship Travel 

Fellows may travel within the U.S., but international travel is discouraged except for emergencies or short (under 10-day) career-related trips approved by ACC at least 60 days prior to the program start date (see “Visa Requirements”). 

Visa Requirements 

New York Fellows must enter the U.S. on a J-1 visa sponsored by ACC—no exceptions. The J-1 is a non-immigrant visa for exchange program participants, and both ACC and fellows must follow U.S. regulations, including:  

• Visa process: ACC begins the J-1 sponsorship process six months before the fellowship. Fellows must provide information, review documents, and communicate with ACC staff. While ACC sponsors the visa, fellows are responsible for submitting the DS-160 application, paying the visa processing fee, and scheduling and attending visa interviews.  

• Work restrictions: Fellows cannot do paid work while in the U.S. on the J-1 visa, including work performed for an employer or client outside the U.S. or work performed during the fellowship but paid later. Fellows also cannot perform or participate in ticketed, paid events (e.g., performances, lectures, workshops, or appearances where admission is charged), even if the fellow is not paid. Fellows with full-time jobs should arrange sabbaticals or leave with their employer.  

• Travel requirements: Any travel outside the U.S. requires ACC’s prior written approval, authorization of international travel in the fellow’s DS-2019, and an “International Travel Liability Waiver” acknowledging that ACC is not responsible for incidents abroad. Essential work-related international travel must be approved at least 60 days before the fellowship start date. ACC reviews all international travel requests at its discretion. 

Grant Amount and Payments 

New York Fellows receive a $38,000 USD grant for the six-month fellowship, including a $3,000 USD advance for travel-related expenses (e.g. $185 USD DS-160 visa application fee, airfare, etc.) ACC covers certain pre-arrival costs that are deducted from the grant, including a $220 USD Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) fee, mandatory travel health insurance ($675-800 USD), and I-House housing, if desired (estimated at $19,400-$20,600 USD for six months). Fellows can expect $10,000–$31,100 USD after their arrival in the U.S., depending on their insurance rate and housing selection. 

What does the Individual Fellowship offer? 

Freedom to Explore: This fellowship supports travel to countries, territories, or regions that are new or less familiar to applicants, enabling them to pursue self-designed research and cultural exchange activities. 

Examples of past Individual Fellow activities include: 

• Interviewing or meeting professionals and other stakeholders who can provide relevant expertise  
• Visiting institutions (e.g., studios, museums, galleries, theaters, libraries) or attending events (e.g., exhibitions, performances, lectures, film screenings) aligned with their research and exchange goals 
• Participating in workshops, symposia, or discussions that advance the exchange of knowledge, ideas, and practices and connects fellows with new communities  
• Conducting archival research 

Individualized Support: ACC offers guidance to enhance proposed activities, expand access to arts and culture, and deepen cultural exchange experiences. Support may include logistical or research advice, introductions to alumni or professionals, invitations to local events, and visa assistance for U.S. travel. 

ACC offices are in New York, Hong Kong, Japan, the Philippines, and Taiwan, so some services may be limited depending on the location of the fellowship. Proposals should be feasible even without extensive ACC support. 

Single and Joint Applicants 

ACC accepts applications from individuals (“single applicants”) as well as joint applicants, which include a primary applicant (who submits and manages the application) and up to two co-applicants, for a maximum of three applicants. 

Joint applications are intended for two or three artists or arts professionals who share research and cultural exchange goals and can execute the fellowship as equal partners. Applicants must explain their shared objectives in the application. 

All applicants, including co-applicants, must meet ACC’s eligibility requirements, commit to traveling for the full duration of the proposed fellowship, and participate equally in all activities—no assistant or secondary roles are allowed. 

The maximum award for an Individual Fellowship is $35,000 USD, regardless of the number of applicants. 

Application instructions for single and joint applicants can be found in the "How to Apply" section.

Additional Eligibility Requirements for the Individual Fellowship 

In addition to the general eligibility requirements, all Individual Fellowship applicants and their co-applicants must 

• Be citizens or legal permanent residents of an ACC-eligible country, territory, or region.  
• Be at least 21 years old by the start of the fellowship.   
• Not pursue university coursework or teaching (in-person or online) during the fellowship. Individual Fellows should take a temporary leave of absence from these activities during their fellowship. 
• If traveling to the U.S., be confident using English to communicate and navigate daily tasks independently, as required for the J-1 visa. 

Eligible Fellowship Travel Destinations 

Applicants to the Individual Fellowship program may propose travel to the following countries, territories, and regions: Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Cambodia, China (Mainland), East Timor, Hong Kong SAR, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Laos, Macau SAR, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, U.S., and Vietnam 

Additional notes: 

• Applicants cannot propose travel to the country, territory, or region where they currently reside, regardless of citizenship or permanent residence. 
• Travel to a familiar location—where applicants have lived for over a year or hold citizenship—requires a strong rationale demonstrating a unique and meaningful cultural exchange.  
• Proposals with multiple destinations or short travel durations are generally less competitive. 

Fellowship Travel Dates and Duration 

• All ACC fellowship travel must occur within the grant period: August 1, 2027 – December 31, 2028. 
• Individual Fellowships must have a duration of at least one month, but no more than six months. 
  • ACC believes that cultural exchange and immersion is enhanced when Individual Fellows spend a greater period of time (at least two months, preferably) exploring one place, rather than visiting multiple countries, territories, or regions for a shorter period. It is also important to consider logistical challenges and/or restrictions related to traveling to multiple countries, territories, or regions during a fellowship. 
• Applicants pursuing a fellowship in the U.S. must plan to spend at least 30 consecutive days in the country.
• Fellowships in the U.S. cannot commence prior to October 1, 2027, due to the time needed to administer J-1 visas (see “Visa Requirements” section below). 
• Applicants pursuing a fellowship in Asia must propose at least 30 cumulative (total) days in the region.  
  • If a visa does not allow travel for more than 30 consecutive days, applicants may propose multiple trips totaling at least 30 days. Each trip must be at least 14 consecutive days, with no more than 14 days between trips.  
  • Applicants proposing multiple shorter trips to the same destination should explain how they will fully engage with the local culture despite these breaks. 
  • Applicants proposing a single brief trip (e.g., three weeks) as part of a multi-destination itinerary should provide a rationale for the short duration (e.g. three weeks in China after two months in Japan)   
• ACC strongly discourages travel outside the proposed destinations during the fellowship, with the exception of medical and family emergencies (see also the “Visa Requirements” section below). Individual Fellows who have essential and unavoidable career-related travel needs must submit a “Change in Proposed Grant Activity” Form seeking ACC’s approval at least 60 days before the fellowship start date. 

Visa Requirements 

Fellowships in the U.S. 

Individual Fellows who travel to the U.S. for their fellowship and who do not have a U.S. passport must obtain a J-1 visa that ACC sponsors–no exceptions. The J-1 is a non-immigrant visa for exchange program participants, and both ACC and Fellows must follow U.S. regulations, including:  

• Visa process: ACC begins the J-1 sponsorship process six months before the fellowship. Fellows must provide information, review documents, and communicate with ACC staff. While ACC sponsors the visa, fellows are responsible for submitting the DS-160 application, paying the visa processing fee, and scheduling and attending visa interviews.  

• Work restrictions: Fellows cannot do paid work while in the U.S. on the J-1 visa, including work performed for an employer or client outside the U.S. or work performed during the fellowship but paid later. Fellows also cannot perform or participate in ticketed, paid events (e.g., performances, lectures, workshops, or appearances where admission is charged), even if the fellow is not paid. Fellows with full-time jobs should arrange sabbaticals or leave with their employer.  

• Travel requirements: Any travel outside the U.S. requires ACC’s prior written approval, authorization of international travel in the fellow’s DS-2019, and an “International Travel Liability Waiver” acknowledging that ACC is not responsible for incidents abroad. Essential work-related international travel must be approved at least 60 days before the fellowship start date.

Before applying for an Individual Fellowship in Asia, applicants should carefully review the travel regulations of their destination country, territory, or region and understand the visa and travel permission requirements. Applicants who are unsure about their eligibility to travel should contact the appropriate embassy or consulate for guidance.
