American Academy in Rome 2018

The Rome Prize is given every year to America's strongest scholars, artists, architects and composers who are exposed to the deeply layered history of Rome, in an 11-month study fellowship at the Academy. We think of each Rome Prize Fellow as a revolutionary going out into the world and supporting the humanities and the arts in the most vibrant way possible.
