關於亞洲文化協會
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

歷史
1963年，約翰．洛克菲勒三世(John D. Rockefeller 3rd)創立了約翰．洛克斐勒三世的亞洲文化交流計劃基金，透過提供獎助金給予視覺及表演藝術界人才及機構，以贊助亞洲及美國之間的文化交流。在創辦執行長Porter A. McCray先生的帶領下，亞洲文化交流計劃發展了其代表性的獎助金，依照每位受獎人的需要，盡力提供量身打造的獎助計劃。
約翰．洛克斐勒三世強調協會在國際交流的持續影響力，他表示：「一直以來，美國人在政治及經濟立場來看待國際關係，對於文化層面的關注卻相對地稀少。其結果，我們的世界觀一直被到我們自身文化束縛，而不是透過對其他文化的敏銳度來開闊視野。」
基於他本人在亞洲遊歷及工作的經驗，約翰．洛克菲勒三世相信「增廣見聞，放眼其他文化本身就是一件值得的事……亦可作為通往另一境界的道路，透過認識及尊重其他文化，我們學會尊重及欣賞他人。」
在1980年，亞洲文化協會（ACC）正式成立，成爲501(c)3非營利機構，以延續亞洲文化計劃的工作。ACC於東京（1983）、香港（1986）、台北（1995）及馬尼拉（2000）設立辦事處及伙伴機構，致力傳承及體現創辦人的理念 – 「建立一個文化交流的網絡是對未來危險又刺激世界的一種保障。」
