^Jrums of Africa echo across America. The
grace of an Indonesian dancer finds a partner
on the stage of the New York City Ballet. A
line drawn by a Finnish designer is picked up
and continued in Chicago. The hands that
mold clay on a turning potter's wheel may

Art is a universal language, one that breaks
the barriers of speech and custom to remind us
time and again of our common humanity. To
understand ourselves and our brothers and sis-
ters in nations across the globe, we only need
look closely at their art and the spirit within
it. Recognizing the importance of discovering
what unites peoples, the U.S. government is
committed to international arts exchange, and
the National Endowment for the Arts is one
Federal agency helping make that exchange
possible and fruitful.
The small, growing International Pro-
gram at the Arts Endowment assists United
States artists and arts institutions as they
strengthen their international ties. The Pro-
gram has information and insights on interna-
tional cultural activities unmatched elsewhere
in this country. Because of the complexities of
the network that exists throughout the United
States for international cultural exchange, our
International Program has developed this clear
and concise guidebook.
This guide serves two purposes. The first
is to introduce you to the work of our Interna-
tional Program and how it complements the
work of other federal, state, and local govern-
ment entities to promote arts exchange. The
second purpose is to provide a comprehensive
and user-friendly source of information for
those interested in international arts exchange.
In addition to its modest grants program,
our International Program functions as a sign-
post to direct artists and arts organizations to
other sources of information and funding that
make possible international cultural exchange.
An extraordinary interest in international arts
exchange has manifested itself in every corner
of our vast country. From New York City to
Los Angeles, from Omaha to Albuquerque,
communities large and small are recognizing
that international arts exchange can provide
unmatched experience for their artists and en-
hance the prestige and economic vitality of
their city or town. With our limited funds, we
cannot hope to address this groundswell of
interest. Therefore, we have developed this
guide to help you find who in the often per-
plexing array of public and private flinders
can support the work you are doing. We want
to put these resources at your fingertips. So
turn the pages and you will discover a world
of opportunities.

A Note from the Director
Ihe Arts Endowment's International Program
is devoted to broadening the scope of experi-
ence of American artists to enrich the art that
they create. Its activities help increase world-
wide recognition of the excellence, diversity,
and vitality of the arts of the United States. In
addition, it supports innovative international
endeavors that increase arts audiences and
deepen public understanding of the cultural
influences from abroad that invigorate Ameri-
can society. Through all its work, the Pro-
gram helps American artists and arts organiza-
tions develop international ties that strengthen
the many art forms of the United States.
The Endowment's in-depth involvement
in international activities began in 1978. We
provided support to the United States Infor-
mation Agency (USIA), which aims to in-
crease international understanding of U.S. so-
ciety, for its international arts programs. In
1984, the Endowment established the Office
of International Activities whose role was to
serve as an advocate for U.S. arts and artists
internationally. Recognizing the need to take
a greater leadership role to support interna-
tional arts activities and information exchanges,
the Arts Endowment formally created the
International Program in 1993.
When I began my tenure as director in
September 1990, I felt strongly that the Pro-
gram should serve not only as a funding re-
source, but also as an advocate and source of
information for artists and arts organizations
to help foster international arts exchanges.
International elements are routinely integrated
into the art that is created and presented
throughout the United States. The increasing
demand for support has severely strained the
modest resources available to fund internation-
ally-based work. The need to identify new
resources to support international arts ex-
changes has been an impetus for creating this
guide.
We have provided information on as many
resources as are known to us that provide
funding or information to artists or arts organ-
izations wishing to work internationally. We
do realize, however, that the information is
only useful when it is current and accurate. We
therefore encourage you to share your views,
comments and experiences with us, so that we
can update and improve this guide. If we have
missed any resources, please write us about
them and we will include them in future edi-
tions. The entries in the guide are based on
exhaustive research and interviews with each
organization that is listed. All entrants have
agreed to be included, though a listing in this
guide in no way constitutes an endorsement of
any organization by the U.S. Government.
My sincere gratitude to all those involved in
this massive undertaking.

Resources for
International Arts Exchange
Chapter 1:
An Introduction to International Arts Resources
Ihroughout the United States communities
are recognizing that international arts inter-
change of the highest caliber provides un-
matched experience for their artists, enhances
the prestige and economic vitality of their
towns, sparks interest to participate in the
global marketplace, and improves the quality
of life.
Education is at the core of international
exchange, and through increased access to
such activities, the more than 170 different
ethnic groups represented in this country learn
more about the roots of their own cultures and
those of other societies. International cultural
events foster cultural literacy and greater audi-
ence interest in a wide range of art forms. In
addition, communities have found that expo-
sure to a variety of cultural traditions engen-
ders greater mutual respect among their dif-
ferent cultural groups.
Today, there is heightened international-
ism in all aspects of U.S. society. Changing
political, social and economic conditions in
this country and around the world have
stimulated international exchanges in the arts.
It remains difficult, however, to obtain sup-
port for these activities. As more artists seek
to explore the artistic expressions of their cul-
tural and ethnic heritages, and more organiza-
tions seek to collaborate with traditional and
contemporary artists abroad, the resources to
fund this work are in great demand.
In writing this guide, we have tried to
respond to what we detect to be a growing
interest in international work in the arts. Ev-
ery day our office receives calls from poten-
tial applicants seeking advice on how to make
their international project happen.
By far, the most commonly asked ques-
tion is "Where can I go for funding?" Some
ask about contacts abroad, embassy connec-
tions, or how to plan a residency. Others want
information on obtaining a visa for visiting
foreign artists or themselves. Questions vary
widely in scope, and the International Pro-
gram staff senses an urgent need in the field
for a central resource providing basic answers
and guidance to artists and arts adnunistrators
interested in international exchange. This guide
represents our attempt to assemble informa-
tion gathered over the past three years.
It is organized in two parts. Part I provides
annotated information about potential hinders
and service organizations; Part II is a directory
with various listings of resources for interna-
tional art activities. Chapter Two outlines
federal government programs, including the
National Endowment for the Arts, the United
States Information Agency, and other less ob-
vious agencies that may support international
work. The private funding community's inter-
national interests are profiled in Chapter Three.
To compile this information, we conducted a
phone survey of hinders listed in the National
Guide to Funding in Arts and Culture (1992)
and the Directory of International Corporate
Giving in America and Abroad (1993).
As important as the dollars are, so, too, are
the people who can put you in touch with
others to help you carry out your project.
Service organization staff members are linked
to a network of contacts in their particular
field that can be of great assistance. Chapter
Four includes information on service organi-
zations that have indicated an ability and a
willingness to help artists with international
work. These organizations can assist you by
providing international contacts, referrals, tech-
nical assistance and/or travel grants.
Finally, it is of utmost importance to de-
velop contacts with the arts community in
your region and abroad before your trip. Your
introduction
conversations and letters will lead you to con-
tacts in your country of interest. Many promi-
nent cultural organizations can provide artists
with specific information based on their par-
ticular needs (eg., contacts, housing, funding).
Part II, the Directory of Resources, provides
Listings of those organizations, including state
and local arts agencies and organizations
abroad such as binational centers, government
ministries, service organizations, presenting
organizations, foundations and corporations
whose assistance can be invaluable in re-
sponding to your specific requests.
For Those Contemplating Work
Abroad
Realizing how much work is involved in launch-
ing an international project, you must hon-
estly assess whether now is the appropriate
time for you or your organization to embark
on one. Keep in mind that you will have to
devote much time and effort to make the
project successful. Should you decide to pro-
ceed, however, a deeply meaningful experi-
ence may await you. ~
For some artists and organizations, work-
ing abroad is an important "next step* in their
work as they prepare to expand their horizons
and move on to a new level of exposure, both
of their art to new audiences and of themselves
to new experiences. Some note a strong desire
to explore their roots. Others want to study
with a master teacher, to learn new skills, or
to seek out topical subject matter, traditions or
styles. After mastering their discipline and
their home environment, they are ready to
move beyond; experiencing another culture
becomes a necessary outgrowth of their work.
Others are motivated by a drive to re-experi-
ence that common bond, that universality,
reflected in the human condition that is so
often the fabric of art.
What makes some international projects
successful while others are less so? Frequently,
it is the project director's commitment to mak-
ing the project happen. A visionary force com-
bined with a determined confidence drives the
best international projects. You must truly
want your project to happen, because it re-
quires extraordinary resourcefulness to initi-
ate the contacts and raise the money to accom-
plish an international endeavor successfully.
In many ways, the task of raising funds can
be likened to a job search. Networks of busi-
ness colleagues, friends, and other artists can all
provide contacts with others who share an
interest in a foreign country. Often, it takes a
groundswell of support, mustered by you, to
attract positive attention to your project from
the media, your local and state governments,
and local businesses. Because there are so few
funders for international activities, you may
have to put some of your own money toward
turning your idea into a reality. For an artist
or an organization just starting in the interna-
tional realm, local fundraising is likely to be
most fruitful. For example, good old fashioned
bake sales, car washes, and raffles have helped
many Arts Endowment grantees raise start-up
funds for their international projects.
Project Research
It is important to explore cultural values and
sensitivities in the culture with which you wish
to work. These include concepts of time,
physical space, gender role, religious practices,
political, economic, and social issues in the
country and with respect to the United States.
For example, a woman artist going to work
in a Muslim society should thoroughly famil-
iarize herself with customs that might restrict
her access to Muslim communities. Religious
practices (holidays, fast days) can also affect
your schedule. Find out the dates of national
and religious holidays. Will they interfere with
your work, either because of the national mood
or the lack of availability of local artists or
master teachers? Will stores be closed? Do
you want to observe religious practices? Will
they be open to you as an outsider? Informal
Introduction
informational interviews with regional experts
in the United States (found through culture-
specific service organizations and in local
universities) may facilitate your work by pro-
viding valuable overseas contacts.
You should also examine practical matters
such as climate, food, housing, transportation,
local and international communications, and
language interpretation. You should identify
which supplies you will need to take from the
United States, and which are available in your
country of destination, and for what price. If
you create new work abroad that you cannot
carry with you on your return, you will want
to investigate shipping costs.
Garnering Resources
Research the resources in the country you wish
to visit, while simultaneously learning every-
thing you can about your home business com-
munity. Many of your answers, funds and
contacts will come from state or local sources.
National resources can also be of tremendous
assistance. This book has been designed to
guide you through the extensive network of
organizations nationwide that can help you
achieve your international goals.
A good place to begin your search is the
local chamber of commerce. Contact that of-
fice to find out if your country of destination
does business with your community. Identify
common interests, evaluate how they coincide
with yours, and begin thinking of ways to
develop a relationship based on possible shared
interests. In addition, contact your state and
local governments through the appropriate
arts agencies; many work internationally with
Sister Cities International or Partners of the
Americas. Some are engaged in specific ex-
change programs as well. For example,
Oklahoma's State Arts Council and the state's
Tourism and Recreation Department, jointly
funded six Oklahoma groups to go to Mexico
to perform at the Oktoberfest in Guadalajara,
Jalisco (Oklahoma's sister state through Part-
ners of the Americas).
When applying to a private funder or a
government funding program, keep the fol-
lowing in mind. First, if they request a work
sample, submit one of the highest quality. The
importance of this aspect of your proposal
cannot be overemphasized. An intelligently
written application cannot counteract a me-
diocre work sample. If your work sample
compels, your proposal may receive the ben-
efit of the doubt, but not vice versa. You may
even consider developing a new work sample
that draws a clear connection between your art
and your project abroad. Your work sample
should be as relevant as possible to the work
you intend to do abroad.
If there is a formal application or instruc-
tions on how to submit proposals, read them
carefully and do exactly what is requested.
Most hinders have program officers who can
provide technical assistance by phone once
you are thoroughly familiar with the applica-
tion requirements. Important points to high-
light in your proposal might be: artistic excel-
lence and achievements; why you have chosen
your country of destination; the planning you
have done to make the project feasible; and
why you wish to work abroad at this point in
your career. Respond directly to any questions
posed and be as specific as possible about col-
laborators and contacts abroad. Costs should
be accurate and reflect in-depth research and
planning. Finally, choose your supporting ma-
terials judiciously. Send only the required
materials, not everything available. The more
concise your application, the more it will hold
its readers' attention. Those reviewing grant
applications consider a huge amount of mate-
rial and rarely have the time to read every
word.
Preparing for Travel
As your plans solidify, you may want to seek
assistance from the embassy of your country of
destination. When calling, ask for the cultural
Introduction
attache. Be clear about the kind of information
you require and build in waiting time for the
attache to gather the information you need.
Embassies can help you in a variety of ways.
Many maintain connections in their home
countries with arts organizations, festival orga-
nizers, and exhibition planners looking for
U.S. artists to participate in events abroad. The
embassy's cultural staff may also be familiar
with foreign arts organizations interested in
international exchange or institutions that ad-
vance cultural awareness about their home
countries.
As you prepare to travel, you might con-
tact relevant domestic and foreign commercial
airlines. Corporate giving policies vary, so ask
for specific guidelines and application advice;
remember to approach both national and re-
gional airline marketing offices, as their giving
policies often differ. U.S. and foreign airlines
occasionally donate airline tickets or cargo
space or may offer discount fares to nonprofit
organizations or individuals of significant ar-
tistic achievement. As each request is consid-
ered separately, try to be as detailed as possible
in your application letter. Describe your proj-
ect and try to illustrate how your international
arts activities may benefit the airline's cor-
porate agenda.
You may need to obtain a visa to work
abroad and you should allow ample time for
the visa application process. Requirements for
U.S. citizens and permanent residents of the
U.S. vary from country to country. To obtain
information on requirements for your country
of interest, contact the nearest appropriate
consulate or the embassy in Washington, DC.
(See Part EI.) Before inquiring about specific
visa regulations, you should be able to provide
the following information to determine the
correct visa category: a) the length of time of
your intended stay; b) the reason for your visit
- tourism, grant work, or business; c) whether
you will be paid by an entity in the host
country; d) the source of your payment or
grant. With this information, the consulate
will be able to determine your visa status.
In addition, ask about any restrictions on
your activity abroad. For example, artists trav-
eling to Japan on a grant are not allowed to
"moon-light," or take on any paid work other
than that for which they received the grant.
Also inquire about extensions of stay, should
you decide to prolong your visit while abroad.
For example, U.S. citizens traveling in Spain
for up to three months need only a passport; an
additional three-month extension may be ob-
tained from a Spanish police station. Staying
longer than six months requires either a stu-
dent or resident visa. Compare these laws with
Indonesia's, where U.S. tourists may not ex-
tend their stay beyond two months, unless
they are traveling on business.
Hosting Artists from Abroad
If your international activity focuses on host-
ing a foreign artist or group in this country,
much of the preceding information on re-
search, networking, and fundraising should be
useful. In addition, you should be aware of the
special nature of the commitment to host some-
one from abroad, particularly if the artists' stay
in your community would be their first in-
depth experience in the United States. Re-
moved from their usual support networks,
most artists will expect that their hosts will
help them set up social as well as work related
activities, just as they would do for U.S. artists
visiting in their country. This is especially true
if the artists speak limited English. These ac-
tivities might include educational field trips to
sites of interest, social gatherings, professional
introductions to others in their field, or being
available to lend a helping hand throughout
the residency period. Volunteers who support
your organization as well as local International
Visitors Councils are likely resources to help in
this regard.
A foreign artist's knowledge of your orga-
nization and expectations may differ from
those of U.S. artists. Artists from abroad could
10
Introduction
have more than the usual number of questions
about work space, schedules, materials, accom-
modations, food preparation, finances, social
activities, etc. To avoid possible misunder-
standings, provide very specific information,
preferably in writing, to each visiting artist on
these issues.
If you are bringing international artists to
present to your audiences, it is important to
plan for adequate community outreach both to
local immigrant groups and to other audiences
you have identified for this work. If you are
hoping to expand your audiences through this
international presentation, you should build
in sufficient lead time to foster communication
with diverse cultural groups.
To take fullest advantage of the visit of
your guest artists from abroad, it is useful to
plan lecture/demonstrations, workshops, mas-
ter classes or other opportunities for interac-
tion with local artists and interested commu-
nity members. Working collaboratively with
schools, universities, community centers, and
culture-specific organizations can lead to the
development of excellent educational materi-
als about the artists and the art forms that they
represent, and this will attract broader, better
informed audiences to your presentations.
Conclusion
The International Program staff compiled the
information in this guide to lead you through
the process of planning and raising funds for
international arts exchange. In so doing, we
hoped to circumvent many of your blind calls,
while at the same time, providing ideas and
fresh insights on developing new and effective
project related contacts. There is no way around
the time-consuming nature of this work, but
we hope our efforts help you make better use
of your time as your ideas evolve into plans.
Please let us know if you find the infor-
mation useful. We also want to hear about
unnecessary or incorrect entries, and we are
open to your suggestions for future revisions.

Chapter 2:
U.S. Government Agencies
I he most obvious federal sources for art-
ists working abroad are the National Endow-
ment for the Arts and the United States Infor-
mation Agency (USIA). Both government
agencies sponsor American artistic expression
abroad. In addition, the Arts Endowment sup-
ports innovative international endeavors in
the United States that increase arts audiences
and deepen the American public's understand-
ing of the cultural influences from abroad that
invigorate U.S. society. You will find informa-
tion on each agency's various programs
throughout this section. In addition to these
funding initiatives, the Arts Endowment and
USIA have become important resources for
information and contacts abroad because of
the wealth of knowledge they each possess
about international arts activities.
Beyond the Arts Endowment and USIA,
the federal government probably isn't the first
source that comes to mind for your interna-
tional work in the arts. Yet other federal agen-
cies may be able to provide assistance and
should not be overlooked. For example, the
Smithsonian Institution has a separate Office
of International Relations that has, in the past,
conducted artistic and cultural exchanges. The
Department of Housing and Urban De-
velopment, while restricted by a lack of funds,
can also serve as an excellent resource for
referrals for architects and design artists. A
more complete list follows.
Finally, you may find it useful to contact
state and local arts agencies; many work inter-
nationally through Sister Cities International
or Partners of the Americas. Some administer
programs of their own.
According to the Arts Endowment's 1994
survey, approximately two thirds of state
arts agencies currently support international
activities. In 1992, the National Assembly of
Local Arts Agencies conducted a similar sur-
vey on the local level revealing that 51.9 per-
cent of 208 respondents were involved in
international arts exchange. You will find a list
of those agencies that responded positively to
these surveys in Part II. If you do not see yours
listed, however, do not assume it is due to a lack
of interest. Many existing programs were
prompted by constituent calls. Yours could be
the next inspiration.
NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR
THE ARTS
The International Program
The Arts Endowment's International Program
assists a broad spectrum of artists and arts
organizations through advocacy, informational
services (such as national workshops, publica-
tions and individual counseling) and modest
grantmaking activities. You will find a list of
funding categories within the International
Program below. Please note that several Inter-
national Program categories are administered
by outside arts organizations. In these cases,
applications and letters of intent should be
sent directly to the addresses listed.
International Projects Initiative (IPI)
IPI offers grants to U.S. cultural nonprofit
organizations to support sustained partner-
ships, artistic exchange, or collaborations with
artists and organizations abroad. Such partner-
ships may involve any artistic discipline and
may take place in the U.S. or in another
country.
Through this category the International
Program seeks to support exemplary arts
projects that demonstrate:
♦ significant expertise in and sensitivity
to the foreign culture(s) involved;
13
U.S. Government Agencies
♦ responsiveness to the needs of the
applicant organization's own community/
constituency;
♦ efforts to impart benefits of interna-
tional interchange to other organizations
and/or wider audiences.
The International Program encourages
applications from U.S. nonprofit organiza-
tions serving the diverse cultural communi-
ties in this country for projects that involve
interaction with their cultures of origin and/
or that establish ties with other cultural com-
munities. In addition, the Program encourages
project applications that promote the pres-
ervation of traditional, community based skills
in the face of global industrialization and ur-
banization.
The Program welcomes new organiza-
tional initiatives and is equally concerned
with strengthening existing programs that
meet the Initiative's overall goals. Organiza-
tions should not propose projects that are
beyond their staff and financial means or
that can be sustained only with continued
Arts Endowment funding.
Limitations: No grants to individuals.

Arts Link
ArtsLink enables U.S. artists and arts organi-
zations to work collaboratively with their
counterparts, both in this country and in the
former bloc countries of Central Europe, East-
ern Europe, the former Soviet Union, and the
Baltics. ArtsLink has two main components:
ArtsLink Collaborative Projects and ArtsLink
Fellowships.
ArtsLink Collaborative Projects supports
U.S. artists working on mutually beneficial
projects with colleagues abroad. U.S. artists
may apply for grants to pursue artistic collabo-
rations and artistic exchange that will enrich
their work and/or to create new work that
draws inspiration from the international expe-
rience.
ArtsLink Fellowships provides matching
funds to U.S. organizations interested in host-
ing an artist or arts administrator from Eastern
or Central Europe or the former Soviet Union
for a five-week residency in the United States.
Applicant organizations must design a hands-
on fellowship experience that provides oppor-
tunities for the visiting professional to interact
with peers and the community at large.
ArtsLink is a partnership of the National
Arts Endowment, the Open Society Fund/
Soros Centers for Contemporary Arts, The
Starr Foundation, The Trust for Mutual Un-
derstanding, and Citizen Exchange Council.
Application Procedure: Interested artists and
organizations should apply directly to Citizen
Exchange Council.

The Fund also supports U.S. participation at
an extremely limited number of international
visual arts exhibitions such as the Venice Bien-
nale and the Sao Paulo Bienal, as well as smaller
venues around the world. (Exhibitions vary
annually.) Only curators, not individual art-
ists, may apply to this highly competitive cat-
egory. Applications will be reviewed by the
Federal Advisory Committee on International
Exhibitions.
Application Procedure: Contact USIA to
have your name placed on a mailing list of cur-
ators interested in developing exhibitions for

United States/Japan Creative Artists'
Fellowships
The United States/Japan Creative Artists' Fel-
lowships are six-month fellowships in Japan.
The fellowships are designed to allow five U.S.
artists who create original work to pursue their
individual artistic goals and interests by living
in Japan, observing developments in their field
and meeting with their professional counter-
parts in Japan. Potential applicants should con-
sider how exposure to Japan and its contem-
porary or traditional arts and culture might
provide an important influence on their cre-
ative work; in what ways working in Japan is
consistent with their artistic vision; and how
the activities they plan to pursue in Japan will
enhance their creative goals.
There are no requirements for artistic cre-
ation, teaching, or public demonstration while
in Japan. In addition, there are no structured
institutional affiliations or living arrangements
for fellows, allowing each artist maximum
flexibility in designing his or her own fellow-
ship activities. International House in Tokyo
will help make introductions into the artistic
community throughout Japan and will assist
selected artists with the logistics of settling in
for their six-month stay.
United States/Canada/Mexico Creative
Artists' Residencies
The United States/Canada/Mexico Creative
Artists' Residencies are designed to enable
twenty U.S. artists (ten in Canada, ten in
Mexico) to have structured interaction with
15
U.S. Government Agencies
colleagues and interested audiences in Canada
or Mexico. Artists are matched with host sites
for two-month residencies during which they
can observe artistic developments in their
fields, expand their understanding of an art
form, and create new work drawing inspira-
tion from their experience abroad. An integral
part of these residencies will be public activities
such as master classes, workshops, in-school
residencies, collaborations with civic organi-
zations and lecture demonstrations designed
jointly by the host organization and the visit-
ing artist. Artists should anticipate dedicating
up to eight hours a week to these activities.
U.S. arts organizations please note: Com-
plementing these opportunities for U.S. art-
ists, Canada and Mexico will each send ten
artists (twenty total) for two-month residen-
cies with U.S. arts organizations. If you are
interested in hosting Canadian or Mexican
visiting artists, call the International Program
to request the Host Organization Program
Announcement.
Limitations: Candidates must select Japan,
Canada, or Mexico and may not apply for
more than one fellowship or residency in a
given year. Candidates are ineligible if, within
the last ten years, they have spent more than
three months working professionally in the
country they wish to visit.
Application Procedure: Contact the Pro-
gram for individual artist guidelines.

U.S. INFORMATION AGENCY
(USIA)
The United States Information Agency is an
independent foreign affairs agency within the
executive branch of the U.S. Government.
USIA's educational and cultural activities are
conducted to advance its mission of promoting
mutual understanding between the United
States and other nations.
Your major point of contact at USIA will
be the Bureau of Educational and Cultural
Affairs, which oversees numerous programs
and services for arts and cultural exchange.
The Bureau of Broadcasting may also be of
assistance for radio and other forms of interna
tional communication regarding the arts. The
following is a descriptive listing of USIA's
various programs. For detailed information,
please contact the appropriate USIA office.
The agency maintains more than 200 U.S.
Information Service (USIS) "posts" staffed by
American foreign service officers and foreign
nationals in more than 120 countries. (The
U.S. Information Agency is known as USIS
abroad.) See Part II for a complete list of USIS
posts.
Bureau of Educational and Cultural
Affairs
Within this Bureau, you may seek assistance
from Arts America, the Office of Cultural
Centers and Resources, the Office of Aca-
demic Programs, the Office of Citizen Ex-
changes, the Office of International Visitors
and the Cultural Property Staff.
Arts America
Arts America administers programs aimed at
increasing foreign understanding of the diverse
creative arts of the United States. Arts America
resources are highly targeted to reach audi-
ences in countries with limited exposure to
American culture. Arts America's activities
are developed in response to requests from
U.S. Embassies abroad. Expert panels drawn
from the U.S. arts community review the
artistic merit of U.S. artists to work abroad and
make recommendations for USIA support. In
16
U.S. Government Agencies
addition to its program activities, Arts America
can assist privately-sponsored arts initiatives
abroad by providing referrals, information and
contacts in other countries. Arts America also
supports the Fund for U.S. Artists at Interna-
tional Festivals and Exhibitions. (See page xx.)
With the exception of its Creative Arts Ex-
changes Division, Arts America is not a grant
application program. Rather it develops pro-
grams to meet specific U.S. Embassy needs.

Within Arts America there are several pro-
grams or areas of concentration:
Artistic Ambassador Program
This program is designed to enhance cross-
cultural exchange by sending new musical tal-
ent abroad to perform and act as exponents of
American music. Artistic Ambassadors give
regular public concerts and lecture-recitals and
may conduct master classes and workshops.
Eligible musicians are sought from music
schools, conservatories, colleges and universi-
ties throughout the United States. They must
be citizens of the United States, and at least 21
years of age. Auditions are held each fall in
various locations throughout the United States.
Judges evaluate musical ability and suitability
as a "good will ambassador." Instruments re-
quested vary each year.
Performing Arts Program
Every year Arts America sponsors a limited
number of fully-funded dance, music and the-
ater presentations abroad. Artists are selected
based on criteria that include artistic excel-
lence and an ability to explain and demonstrate
their art. This last criterion is important be-
cause in addition to performances, overseas
tours often involve workshops, master classes
and receptions. Arts America, in cooperation
with the sponsoring U.S. embassy, provides
international travel, living expenses, perfor-
mance fees and technical arrangements. They
concentrate their efforts in countries where
American performers rarely appear com-
mercially. Sponsorship and facilitative assis-
tance by Arts America is generally limited to
professional performing artists and groups.
Arts America does not support amateur or
community groups, or any groups below uni-
versity age.
Speaker and Cultural Specialist Program
This program is designed to foster the ex-
change of ideas in the areas of creative and
performing arts. Expert practitioners of the
arts are recruited in response to requests made
by U.S. embassies and foreign cultural and
educational institutions. Arts America speak-
ers usually spend two weeks abroad in two or
more countries lecturing; American cultural
specialists spend up to six weeks in one country
working and consulting with foreign colleagues,
as well as conducting workshops and master
classes.
Fine Arts Exhibitions
Arts America funds exhibitions which are pre-
sented under the auspices of U.S. embassies.
Proposals from U.S. museums and indepen-
dent curators are reviewed by a panel which
makes recommendations to Arts America. The
Arts America staff selects projects for devel-
opment that meet program needs of USIS posts
overseas. The staff works with the selected
U.S. organizer to prepare the exhibition and
set the itinerary, usually from ten to fifteen
venues in a two- to three-year period. The exhi-
bitions are presented at major foreign muse-
ums and at American cultural centers in all
17
U.S. Government Agencies
parts of the world. The Arts America fine arts
exhibition program is not a grant applica-
tion program and is not intended to provide
support for international exhibition tours
whose venues have already been determined.
Curators may contact Arts America for addi-
tional information.
BNC Circuit
The BNC Circuit is a small program with
limited funding administered by Arts Ameri-
ca. Under this program, small U.S. performing
arts groups and visual arts exhibitions travel to
binational centers across Latin America. (See
page xx). Due to the limited facilities and small
budgets of mostBNCs, only technically simple,
small-scale performances and exhibitions are
considered. For further information, write to
Arts America.
Creative Arts Exchanges Division
The Creative Arts Exchanges Division seeks
to link American arts and museum profession-
als and institutions with their counterparts in
other countries. It accomplishes this goal
through projects that connect professional
networks in the United States with USIS cul-
tural offices at American diplomatic missions
around the world.
The American networks provide USIS of-
fices access to quality arts and museum activity
in the United States, and vice versa. The divi-
sion administers a grant program for American
nonprofit organizations that helps fund such
international linkages; serves as guide, commu-
nicator and monitor of the networks created
by the projects it funds; and encourages pri-
vate sector support so as to ensure follow-up
and continuity in the linkages so created. This
division periodically announces in the Federal
Register requests for proposals (RFPs) to sup-
port projects of the highest quality arts endeav-
ors. (Contact Arts America to be notified of
RFP dates.)

may be of interest:
Centers Management Staff
Binational Centers (BNCs) are independent,
self-sustaining, nonprofit institutions estab-
lished in a number of countries to provide
cultural and educational programs relating both
to each institution's home country and to the
United States. Over 80 percent of these centers
are located in Latin America, with additional
centers in Europe and East Asia. Over the past
several years, USIA has decreased its mone-
tary support of BNCs, but the agency still
maintains strong relations with many of
them. BNCs can provide contacts in the local
arts community and space for performances,
exhibitions and/or rehearsals. In addition, they
may be able to furnish artists fees and publicity
for U.S. artists wishing to perform or exhibit
abroad. (See Part II for a list of BNCs by
country.)

Academic Exchanges Division
This division administers the Fulbright Pro-
gram, which is divided into awards for post-
doctoral level scholars (or equivalent), and pre-
doctoral level scholars. Many of the Fulbright
grants awarded each year go to scholars or
practicing artists in music, theater, dance, art
and art history, and American literature. The
Council for International Exchange of Schol-
ars administers the Fulbright Scholar Program
for artists with an MFA degree, professional
experience and recognition in their arts field.
Recipients of these awards use funds to lecture
at foreign colleges or universities, or to receive
advanced professional training. Highly quali-
fied, non-degree artists and craftspeople are
also considered. The Institute of International
Education administers the student fellowship
portion of the Fulbright Program, (up to the
MFA level for artists). These awards are for
graduate study, research and practical training.
Most Fulbright awards are made for specific
disciplines in specific areas, however, many
coun-tries have "open" fellowship slots that
can be filled by persons from any field, includ-
ing the arts.
Application Procedure: Contact the Council
for International Exchange of Scholars (CIES)
for the Scholar Program (post-MFA), or the
Institute of International Education for the
Student Program (pre-MF A) to determine avail-
ability of fellowships in your country of inter-
est, and to receive application materials.

the 1970 UNESCO Convention on illicit
trade in cultural property. It administers the
Cultural Property Advisory Committee, which
oversees USLVs delegated executive responsi-
bilities under the Cultural Property Imple-
mentation Act. This Act provides that coun-
tries signatory to the 1970 Convention may
petition the U.S. for import restrictions on
certain categories of archaeological and ethno-
logical material, the pillage of which places a
nation's cultural patrimony in jeopardy. As a
result of USIA's decisionmaking responsi-
bilities under the Act, several countries, in-
cluding El Salvador, Bolivia, Peru and Guate-
mala, receive U.S. import protection.

LIBRARY OF CONGRESS
Artists working abroad will find the Library of
Congress an invaluable resource. The Library
houses publications and films from around the
world (in many languages) that may be diffi
cult to locate elsewhere in the United States. If
you need to conduct in-depth research on your
country of destination, the Library of Con-
gress may simplify your work significantly,
and may warrant a trip to Washington, DC.
Before visiting the Library of Congress, you
are advised to conduct preliminary research at
an appropriate public or academic li-brary to
identify the materials you need. Preliminary
"browsing" isn't possible because the Library
of Congress' collections are housed in re-
stricted, closed stacks. Also, the Library of
Congress is a research library, not a lending li-
brary, so materials cannot be checked out. Re-
searchers must be over high school age and
must show photo identification to request mate-
rials in all of the Library's public reading rooms.

the Music Division may be helpful resources
to working artists.
American Folklife Center
The Center is a national advocate for the
preservation and presentation of American
folklife. Serving a varied constituency, the
center offers a wide range of programs (field
projects, conferences, exhibitions, workshops,
concerts, publications) and services (advisory
assistance, research and archival facilities, and
equipment loan). In addition, it maintains rela-
tions and coordinates programs with the Arts
and Humanities Endowments, the Smithson
ian Institution, and the National Park Service.

NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR
THE HUMANITIES
The National Endowment for the Humanities
supports research in the humanities under-
taken by individual scholars through a number
of programs in the Division of Fellowships and
Seminars, including six- to twelve-month fel-
lowships and summer stipends. Collaborative
projects are supported through the Division of
Research Programs. Projects in the history of
the arts, literary studies, philosophy, and other
humanities disciplines are eligible. Research
may be conducted in this country or abroad.
In addition, the Humanities Endowment
supports fellowship programs administered by
research libraries and museums and other inde-
pendent centers for advanced study. The fel-
lowships awarded by each center enable schol-
ars to pursue research in the humanities while
benefiting from collegial association with schol-
ars in other disciplines or areas of interest. In
1994-95, the following American overseas cen-
ters will offer NEH fellowships: American
Academy in Rome, American Institute of In-
dian Studies, American Research Center in
Egypt (Cairo), American Research Institute in
Turkey (Ankara and Istanbul), American
School of Classical Studies in Athens, and the
Cyprus American Archaeological Research
Institute (Nicosia). Individual scholars must
apply directly to the centers. A list of centers
offering NEH fellowships may be obtained
from the Centers and International Research
Organizations Program.
The Humanities Endowment also supports
fellowships and other grant programs in the
humanities administered by scholarly organi-
zations with expertise in the promotion of
research on foreign cultures. Examples are the
humanities programs of the Committee for
Scholarly Communication with China and the
programs of the International Research and
Exchanges Board for research in Eastern Eu-
rope, Mongolia, and the republics formerly a
part of the Soviet Union. Individual scholars
must apply directly to the organizations. A full
list is available from the Centers and Interna-
tional Research Organizations Program.
Limitations: Degree candidates and persons
seeking support for work in pursuit of a degree
are not eligible; foreign nationals are not eli-
gible unless they have lived in the United States
for the three years immediately preceding the
application deadline for the fellowship.

STATE AND LOCAL AID
State and local arts agencies often provide the
opportunity for resident artists and arts organi-
zations to reach new audiences abroad. They
also serve to enrich the cultural life of a state,
city, town, suburb, or rural area through ex-
posure to visiting foreign artists. The SAAs
and LAAs listed in Part II provide some funds
for international work. One initiative de-
serves special note. The Ohio Arts Council's
international arts initiative, Arts 2000, has been
in operation since 1987. The program received
its impetus from then Governor Richard
Celeste's interest in promoting the state's cul-
tural resources to other countries. Since 1989,
approximately 100 Ohio artists have been able
to reach audiences abroad through this pro-
gram, which also introduced artists and exhib-
its from Japan, China, and Russia to Ohio
audiences.
VISA INFORMATION
If you are an agent, manager, or presenter who
wishes to bring a foreign artist or group to the
United States to perform, you must petition
the Immigration and Naturalization Service
(INS) to authorize a U.S. Consulate to issue
the necessary visa(s) for the artist(s) and es
sential support personnel. The steps you must
take to petition for and obtain a U.S. visa for a
foreign artist or group are outlined below. As
the guidelines for petitioners are subject to
change, only the basic rules are outlined. You
may want to consult an immigration lawyer
for answers to specific questions.
Step 1: Requesting Information
Call the nearest local U.S. Immigration and
Naturalization Service (INS) to request an I-
129 Booklet which contains an Application
Form 1-129 and the associated instructions.
Allow ten working days for the booklet to
arrive. In addition, you may want to look up
the INS regulations themselves in Volume 8 of
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Sec-
tions 214.2(o) and (p). This is the most reliable
source of correct procedures. The CFR can be
found in any law library.
Step 2: Determining Visa Classifications
As you will see when you read through the INS
booklet, INS regulations designate aO" and
"P" visas for foreign artists and entertainers,
including the classifications within each visa
category. The regulations describe these vari-
ous visa classifications, the relevant proce-
dures, and the documents needed to support
petitions for each classification.
Note that the current edition of the 1-129
instruction booklet (published in 1991) is out-
27
U.S. Government Agencies
dated and does not reflect the correct require-
ments or procedures. Therefore, until INS
issues a new instruction booklet, use extreme
caution in applying for the "O" and T" visas,
and above all, file your petition(s) as far in
advance as possible (up to six months) so that
there will be ample time to correct problems.
You can use the regulations' descriptions of
"O" and "P" visas, the 1-129 form, and the
"O" and "P" visa supplements to the 1-129,
which are all up-to-date.
"O" Visas
There are two categories of "O" visas: O-l and
0-2. O-l visas apply to individual artists with
extraordinary ability who are temporarily vis-
iting the United States to pursue their art form.
These artists must demonstrate sustained na-
tional or international acclaim for their ex-
traordinary artistic accomplishments.
Thus, in addition to submitting a properly
completed 1-129 form, an "O* visa supple-
ment to the 1-129 form, and the correct fee, you
will have to provide documentation of the
artist's extraordinary ability. To do so, you
must either (a) provide evidence that the artist
has received a nomination or an actual signifi-
cant award in the field (the equivalent of an
Academy Award, Emmy or Grammy Award),
or (b) provide at least three different types of
evidence. These include evidence that the artist
has performed and will perform services as a
lead or starring participant in productions,
events, or for reputable organizations and
establishments; critical reviews or articles; evi-
dence of commercial or critical success; recog-
nition from organizations, critics, government
agencies, or other experts in the field; lesser
awards/prizes; or evidence that the artist has
received high compensation relative to others
in the field. Inaddition, you must show that the
event for which the artist is applying requires
the services of an artist of this caliber.
An 0-2 classification applies to non-citi-
zens visiting the United States for the sole
purpose of accompanying or assisting an O-l
artist in his/her artistic performance. The 0-2
visa applicant must be an integral part of the
O-l artist's performance, must possess skills
and experiences critical to the O-l artist, and
must have prior experience with the O-l artist.
These skills cannot be general in nature. For
example, an experienced operator of a sound
system who knows the "correct sound" for an
O-l artist is eligible for an 0-2 visa. Managers
and agents are considered essential support
personnel. You may combine all the support
personnel necessary to accompany an O-l art-
ist in one 0-2 petition; however, you cannot
include 0-2 personnel in an O-l petition.
V Visas
There are three categories of "P" visas: P-l,
P-2, and P-3. A P-l visa applies to interna-
tionally acclaimed ensembles or groups, as
opposed to individual artists. These ensembles
must have been recognized in their fields for a
substantial period of time, and have performed
regularly for at least one year under the group
name used in the petition. Seventy-five per-
cent of the P-l artists must be integral mem-
bers of the group, usually for at least one year
(subject to exceptions in case of unanticipated
emergency and of expansion of a group for
touring purposes). Your petition must include
an alphabetical list of the group's members
and the exact dates of their regular employ-
ment with the group. You will also have to
submit supporting materials to document the
group's international acclaim and existence for
at least one year, generally with the same type
of documentation required for the O-l visas.
National acclaim may suffice in some cases.
The P-2 classification applies to artists com-
ing to the United States under a reciprocal
exchange agreement between the United
States and an organization in one or more
foreign country. At this writing, only a few
such agreements exist between U.S. labor orga-
nizations and their foreign counterparts. Little
28
U.S. Government Agencies
documentation is required for this classifica-
tion besides the advisory opinion discussed
below.
The P-3 classification applies to artists and
entertainers participating in culturally unique
programs. A P-3 artist must be recognized for
excellence in presenting a unique traditional,
ethnic, folk, cultural, musical, theatrical, or
other artistic program. A P-3 artist may also be
recognized for teaching or coaching such a
program. Further, the culturally unique pro-
gram must incorporate a style, method or
medium of artistic expression unique to a
particular country, nation, society, class,
ethnicity, religion, tribe, or other group.
If you apply for a P-3 visa, you must
include in your application two of the follow-
ing three types of documentation that artists
have: (a) performed the culturally unique mate-
rial for a substantial period of time; achieved
national or international recognition as shown
in published materials; (c) achieved recogni-
tion from an educational, governmental, or
cultural agency, or from a recognized expert in
the field. Each P-3 application must also in-
clude one or two letters from a recognized
expert(s) in the field, attesting to the group's
authenticity and excellence, and its level of
recognition in a country. The letter must pro-
vide detailed credentials for its author.
You may include all individuals applying
for a single type of "P" visa in one application.
However, support personnel needed to assist
or accompany applicants for aP" visas require
separate petitions, just as the 0-2 petition is
separate from its O-l counterpart. The appro-
priate visas for support personnel for P-l, P-2,
and P-3 visa applicants are, respectively, P-1S,
P-2S, and P-3S.
Step3: Obtaining a Written Advisory
Opinion
All "O" and "P" petitions must be accompa-
nied by a written advisory opinion, or a "no
objection letter" from the national office of an
appropriate labor organization, such as the
American Federation of Unions, the American
Guild of Musical Artists, or the International
Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees. To
obtain such an opinion, forward a copy of the
petition and the essential supporting document-
ation to the appropriate union at least one
week before you plain to submit the petition.
Step 4: Submission of Materials
When submitting the above materials, you
must include signed contracts or a summary
of the essential terms of any oral agreements
with the artist and an itinerary listing the name
of each sponsor or presenter, the date and
location of each performance throughout the
period of the intended visit, and the essential
compensation terms.
The petition may not be filed more than
six months before the starting date of the
artist's services in the United States. The turn-
around time is three to six weeks, depending
on the particular INS Service Center and the
completeness of the petition. Be sure to follow
the INS instruction carefully for filing details
such as place of filing, number of copies, etc.
All petitions for artists and support personnel
must be filed in duplicate . In addition, there are
special procedures for emergency expedit-
ed petitions that are specific to each INS Ser-
vice Center. Emergency requests are not auto-
matically granted; they must be fully justified.
The current filing fee is $70, plus $10 for
each worker included in the application. For
example, for an ensemble of eight with two
essential support personnel, the total fee will
be $240: [$70 + ($10 x 8)] - $150 for the en-
semble; [$70 + ($10x 2)] - $90 for the support
personnel.
Send all materials via air courier (so that
you have a delivery receipt) to one of the
following INS Regional Service Centers:

Chapter 3:
Corporations and Foundations
V orporations and foundations can be an ex-
cellent resource for artists who wish to work
abroad. This chapter identifies those that will
consider support for international arts pro-
grams. Some private funders demonstrate a
consistent interest in international work. For
most, however, this is not a priority. Many
fund arts activities, others fund international
exchange, but rarely does a private supporter
combine the two. Searching for funding is by
no means hopeless. You may not find an ex-
plicitly stated interest in international arts fund-
ing, however, many private funders will be
open to the idea if it furthers their own mis-
sion. The more information you have about a
potential funder, the easier it will be to identify
that mission. Most foundations and corpora-
tions provide guidelines to potential appli-
cants. In these cases, be sure to call or write for
your copy. Also request the most recent an-
nual report, which will outline the
organization's funding priorities.
Recognizing the idea at the heart of a
corporation's or foundation's philanthropic
mission makes it easier to evaluate whether a
particular project fits a given funder. For ex-
ample, if a corporation focuses its arts giving
on education in its areas of operation in the
United States, an international proposal might
be considered if it involves returning from
abroad and teaching children using techniques
gleaned from the foreign experience. Simi-
larly, a foundation that states an emphasis on
international understanding and conflict reso-
lution will often consider an innovative arts
proposal with cross-cultural impact. As a
generalrule, you will find giving guidelines to
be just that; guidelines that set the funders'
parameters and lay out the general rules. With-
in these boundaries, you will often discover a
flexible approach to the allocation of funds.
Private funders sometimes impose geo-
graphic restrictions on international propos-
als. You will notice throughout this chapter
that some give only to organizations in certain
regions of the United States, while others give
only in "operating locations worldwide." The
only way to find out exactly which locations
are eligible is to request the guidelines and
annual report.
A final note: It is never too soon to begin
collecting information from corporations and
foundations about their giving programs. Some
have only one application review per year
while others review applications on a rolling
basis. Keeping a file of potential funding sources
can only help, even if an international project
may be far in the future.

Chapter 4:
SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS
f\xs service organizations, which provide in-
formation and assistance to their fields, do not
usually serve as hinders, although some do
incorporate grantmaking activities into their
programs. Some serve a particular arts disci-
pline (e.g., the Visual Arts and Galleries Asso-
ciation, Dansource), others serve the arts in
general (e.g., Arts International, Volunteer
Lawyers for the Arts), others serve a particular
cultural group or country (e.g., Association of
Hispanic Artists, the Swedish Institute). These
organizations may provide international con-
tacts, referrals, technical assistance and/or travel
grants.
Often, staff members at service organiza-
tions are knowledgeable about international
aspects of their given field. For example, Opera
America, a national service organization, is
essentially a domestic organization. However,
the staff has information about touring prac-
tices, festivals, competitions and schools world-
wide in the opera field. The Folger Shakespeare
Library often hosts visiting fellows and other
experts on Shakespearean literature who could
provide information about translations, play
production, and colleagues abroad. Similarly,
the Japan Society has extensive contacts in the
Japanese arts community and would be helpful
in executing a project in that country.
Some service organizations (particularly
the discipline-specific variety), have modest
membership fees for their services. Often, you
can pay minimal fees for specific services, such
as use of a job bank, or subscription to a
newsletter or other publication, without pay-
ing for full membership to the organization. In
any case, service organizations are there to
serve, and will attempt to do so to the best of
their ability.
The service organizations in this chapter
have been divided into three sections: Arts,
Culture-Specific and General. The first section
(Arts) has been organized by discipline and
includes dance, design arts, folk arts, literature,
media arts, museum, music, theater, visual arts
and multidisciplinary arts.The next section
(Culture-specific) section provides access to or-
ganizations offering a variety of services for or
about a given country or cultural group. The
final section (General) lists non-arts organiza-
tions, which can provide a surprising amount
of useful information for international arts

You may want to begin by locating the
organizations that support your discipline, fol-
lowed by those that serve your country of
interest and then those that serve many disci-
plines and countries. If these organizations
can't help you with a particular project, ask for
referrals to other organizations that might.
Staff members are often linked to a network of
domestic organizations, one of which might
serve your needs.

American Dance Festival has pioneered inter-
national exchange in dance through several
programs. The International Choreographers
Residency (ICRJ brings promising choreogra-
phers to ADF for seven weeks. The variety
and scope of ADF's performances and classes
offer choreographers from abroad an opportu-
nity to immerse themselves in American mod-
ern dance. Under the International Choreogra-
phers Commissioning Program (ICCPJ, ADF
offers six-week residencies to three or four
previous ICR participants. While in residence,
they create new dance works for ADF dancers
which are premiered during ADF's perfor-
mance season. The Institutional Linkage Pro-
gram (ILP) developed out of the worldwide
network of choreographers that emerged from
ADF's ICR program. Many ICR participants
are affiliated with major dance institutions in
their home countries and are eager to build
upon previous ICR connections. ADF collabo-
rates with foreign ICR participants and the ap-
propriate USIS post (see Part II for addresses
of USIS posts) to create a linkage that meets
the needs of their international partner. Link-
ages emphasize the connection of modern dance
to the traditions of other countries. Finally, on
a larger scale, ADF periodically organizes
"mini-ADFs" abroad with the support of an
international host. These mini-ADFs run for
two weeks and offer daily classes for students,
performances by U.S. modern dance compa-
nies, as well as lecture presentations by ADF's
faculty. To date, collaborating countries in-
clude: Japan, Korea, India and Russia.

REGIONAL ARTS ASSOCIATIONS
The six regional arts associations in the United
States support international work to varying
degrees. Contact the one in your region for
further information. All six associations are
linked in one international program called the
International Arts Programming Network.
This new program, funded by USIA, is de-
signed to create an independent arts network
between the six regionals and binational cen-
ters (BNCs) abroad. Within each U.S. region,
one presenting organization is chosen to host
foreign artists touring the United States, and
U.S. artists are chosen to tour the BNC circuit
abroad. Currently, the circuit includes seven
BNCs in Latin America and Southeastern Eu-
rope. To qualify, American visual artists must
have received a regional fellowship for the year
in question, and performing artists and organi-
zations must have demonstrated a reputation
of excellence in the region. For further infor-
mation about the Network, contact the Direc-
tor of Programs at the Mid- America Arts Alli-
ance.

hibition and/or rehearsal space. In addition,
BNCs may be able to furnish artists' fees and
publicity for U.S. artists wishing to perform
or exhibit abroad. Some countries have
multiple BNCs, in which case you should
target your cities of interest and contact the
BNCs there, as well as the BNC in the
capital city (indicated by * in the list below).
A few BNCs participate in the International
Arts Programming Network which pro-
vides touring opportunities to a number of
countries. This pilot network was devel-
oped so that arts groups from countries with
binational centers may travel in the United
States through the six-member circuit of
U.S. regional arts organizations (RAOs),
and so that U.S. artists may travel through a
BNC circuit that currently includes seven
BNCs in Latin America and Southeastern
Europe. Performing and visual arts present-
ers should contact the Director of Programs
at the Mid-America Arts Alliance for fur-
ther information.
Another activity of note is the BNC Circuit,
a small program with limited funding admin-
istered by USIA's Office of Cultural Cen-
ters. Under this program, U.S. performing
arts groups and visual arts exhibitions travel
to BNCs across Latin America. Only perfor-
mances and exhibitions that are small in
scale and technically simple can be included
in the Circuit, due to the limited space and
funds of the BNCs.
Government Ministries (GM)
however those included in this guide are also
concerned with fostering cross-cultural ex-
change. They are good sources of infor-
mation, especially about large cultural festi-
vals, exhibitions and top name artists in
your country of interest. They generally do
not offer funding to foreign artists, although
they may support a collaboration between a
U.S. and local artists.
Service Organizations (SO)
Foreign service organizations may serve a
single arts discipline or the broad cultural
arena. They are generally private, nonprofit
organizations with limited funding but exten-
