 Three new opportunities


  June 26, 2006  -  The U.S.-Japan Creative Artists' Program provides 
five-month residencies in Japan for individual creative artists in any
discipline.  
While in Japan, artists work on an individual project that may include the 
creation of new work or pursuit of other artistic goals.  When planning the
stay 
abroad, artists should consider how exposure to Japan's contemporary or 
traditional cultures can influence their creative work.  Five awards are
made 
annually.  This program is administered jointly by the National Endowment
for the 
Arts and the Japan-U.S. Friendship Commission.  Guidelines are available at 
www.jusfc.gov.
