关於亚洲文化协会

The Asian Cultural Council (ACC) is a grant-giving and grant-receiving global nonprofit organization founded and headquartered in New York City, that fosters cultural exchange between the U.S. and Asia, and within Asia. ACC understands and promotes the profound impact of cultural exchange. Our fellowships and grants give ACC grantees more than just the funds to travel to another country. They afford grantees the freedom and time to experience what it means to live among people of a new culture, with all the nuances and intricacies of daily life. Since 1963, ACC has awarded over $100 million to support approximately 6,000 fellowship exchanges across 16 disciplines to grantees from 26 countries and regions.

 

Our Mission 

The Asian Cultural Council advances international dialogue, understanding, and respect through cultural exchange activities in Asia and the United States to create a more harmonious and peaceful world. 

 

What Does ACC Do?

ACC provides artists, scholars, arts professionals, and organizations opportunities to engage in cultural exchange activities between the U.S. and Asia, and within Asia, by offering grants and fellowships during an annual application period. Compared to other grant-giving organizations that fund production-focused activities, ACC’s grant opportunities allow grantees to fully and freely immerse themselves in a culture other than their own to advance international dialogue, understanding, and respect.

Grant opportunities include:

  • New York Fellowship
  • Individual Fellowship
  • Graduate Fellowship
  • Organization Grant

历史

1963年,约翰.洛克菲勒三世(John D. Rockefeller 3rd)创立了约翰.洛克斐勒三世的亚洲文化交流计划基金,透过提供奖助金给予视觉及表演艺术界人才及机构,以赞助亚洲及美国之间的文化交流。在创办执行长Porter A. McCray先生的带领下,亚洲文化交流计划发展了其代表性的奖助金,依照每位受奖人的需要,尽力提供量身打造的奖助计划。

约翰.洛克斐勒三世强调协会在国际交流的持续影响力,他表示:「一直以来,美国人在政治及经济立场来看待国际关系,对於文化层面的关注却相对地稀少。其结果,我们的世界观一直被到我们自身文化束缚,而不是透过对其他文化的敏锐度来开阔视野。」

基於他本人在亚洲游历及工作的经验,约翰.洛克菲勒三世相信「增广见闻,放眼其他文化本身就是一件值得的事……亦可作为通往另一境界的道路,透过认识及尊重其他文化,我们学会尊重及欣赏他人。」

在1980年,亚洲文化协会(ACC)正式成立,成爲501(c)3非营利机构,以延续亚洲文化计划的工作。ACC於东京(1983)丶香港(1986)丶台北(1995)及马尼拉(2000)设立办事处及伙伴机构,致力传承及体现创办人的理念 - 「建立一个文化交流的网络是对未来危险又刺激世界的一种保障。」
