Applications are now open for the 2017–2018 term of The Samuel Kress Foundation AAMC Foundation Affiliated Fellowship at the American Academy in Rome (AAR). Currently in its fourth year, the Fellowship provides essential funding to Association of Art Museum (AAMC) members pursuing projects that require research in Italy. Awarded projects need not be Rome or Italian-specific. During their four-week appointment at the AAR, Fellows will be able to access the city’s artistic patrimony, as well as the rich content of its museums, libraries, and archives that inform a myriad of Italian subjects from all arts disciplines. The appointment also includes access to AAR facilities and activities, housing at the AAR, most meals, a stipend, and funding for airfare. Applications are due by January 9, 2017, and can be accessed here.
