Rome Prize is awarded to thirty emerging artists and scholars in the early or middle stages of their careers


OVERVIEW
Each year, the Rome Prize is awarded to thirty emerging artists and scholars in the early or middle stages of their careers who represent the highest standard of excellence in the arts and humanities.

Fellows are chosen from the following disciplines:
Architecture
Design
Historic Preservation and Conservation
Landscape Architecture
Literature (awarded only by nomination through the American Academy of Arts and Letters)
Musical Composition
Visual Arts
Ancient Studies
Medieval Studies
Renaissance and Early Modern Studies
Modern Italian Studies
Prize recipients are invited to Rome for six months or eleven months to immerse themselves in the Academy community where they will enjoy a once in a lifetime opportunity to expand their own professional, artistic, or scholarly pursuits, drawing on their colleagues' erudition and experience and on the inestimable resources that Italy, Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Academy have to offer.
Rome Prize winners are the core of the Academy's residential community, which also includes Residents and Visiting Artists and Scholars.
Fellows are encouraged to work collegially within and across disciplines in pursuit of their individual artistic and scholarly goals.
The Academy gratefully acknowledges the National Endowment for the Humanities for its support of the Rome Prize competition.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Each Rome Prize winner is provided with a stipend, meals, a bedroom with private bath, and a study or studio. Those with children under 18 live in partially subsidized apartments nearby. Winners of 6-month and 11-month fellowships receive stipends of $15,000 and $27,000, respectively.
Owing to the fluctuating dollar/euro exchange rate and the high cost of living in Rome, the stipends offered may not cover all expenses. This is especially true for prize winners who come to Rome with spouses, companions and/or children.
Fellowships generally begin at the Academy in early September and end in early August. Winners of the 11-month Rome Prize fellowships may select to depart the Academy after nine months with no reduction to the fellowship stipend.
For Further Information:
info@aarome.org
call 212-751-7200
fax 212-751-7220 

ELIGIBILITY
—Applicants for all Rome Prize fellowships, except those applying for the National Endowment for the Humanities post-doctoral fellowship, must be United States citizens at the time of the application.
—U.S citizens and those foreign nationals who have lived in the United States for three years immediately preceding the application deadline may apply for the NEH post-doctoral fellowships.
—Graduate students in the humanities may apply only for pre-doctoral fellowships.
—Previous winners of the Rome Prize are not eligible to re-apply.
—Undergraduate students are not eligible for Rome Prize fellowships.
Individuals may submit joint applications provided the work is genuinely collaborative in nature as demonstrated by the materials submitted. In the case of joint applications, each individual must meet all eligibility requirements. Joint applications must be submitted in one package. Joint applicants selected as winners will share one prize.

Winners of the Rome Prize may hold other fellowships concurrently, as long as the requirements of such fellowships do not conflict with the Academy's rules. Applicants are required to disclose all fellowships and awards they expect to hold during their proposed residency in Rome, including sabbatical pay. The Academy may make adjustments to the stipends based on other awards held by Rome Prize recipients. Winners may not hold full-time jobs while at the Academy.

THE SELECTION PROCESS
Each year the Academy's New York office organizes the open national competition to select Rome Prize winners. Jury members, selected annually, are prominent in their respective disciplines and drawn from all regions of the country. The jury convenes from January through March and finalists may be required to come to New York at the Academy's expense for interviews. The Academy's Board of Trustees announces the winners in late April.
The primary criterion for selection is proven excellence in an applicant's achievements and the potential for future development. Jurors will consider the quality of submitted application materials and what interviews reveal about an applicant's past achievements and future goals. The jury may select any candidate it judges to be outstanding in his or her field and is at a point in the individual's career where the Rome Prize experience would be critical to future growth and development.

All other factors being equal, preference will be given to those applicants who have not had extensive prior experience living, studying, and/or working in Rome.

DEADLINES AND FEES
The annual deadline for applications is 1 November. Applications will also be accepted between 2 November and 15 November for an additional fee (see below for details).

No applications postmarked after 15 November will be accepted.

1 November
$30 if submitting one application
$40 if submitting two or more applications

15 November
$60 if submitting one application
$75 if submitting two or more applications  
There is no application fee for those applying solely for NEH post-doctoral fellowships.

Humana, Humana Foundation, and KaBOOM!


Humana, Humana Foundation, and KaBOOM! Announce Three-Year Partnership to Build nearly 40 Playgrounds across the Country Representing $6 Million Investment
New partnership supports Humana’s commitment to lifelong well-being for people of all ages
LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM), one of the nation’s leading health care and well-being companies, and its Foundation today announced a three-year partnership with KaBOOM! to build 39 playgrounds in communities across the country. The partnership represents a $6 million investment by Humana and The Humana Foundation to promote lifelong well-being for people of all ages. KaBOOM! is an award-winning national nonprofit that creates play spaces through the participation and leadership of communities and partners.
“We’re committed to helping create lasting impact on our communities and to encourage adoption of healthy lifestyles among generations for years to come.”
Many of the play spaces will have a multi-generational focus, encouraging all community members to participate in fun and healthy activities.
“At Humana, we believe in making fun things healthy and healthy things fun. Through this playground partnership with KaBOOM!, we’re offering families an opportunity to enjoy physical activity and a stronger sense of belonging where they live, work, and play,” said Michael B. McCallister, Humana’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. “We’re committed to helping create lasting impact on our communities and to encourage adoption of healthy lifestyles among generations for years to come.”
The playgrounds built by Humana, the Humana Foundation, and KaBOOM! will include senior-focused and multi-generational elements, such as fitness stations, walking paths, or community gardens to encourage a healthy diet and promote good posture, balance and flexibility. They will also feature traditional kid-friendly equipment for a space truly for people of all ages to play and gather for family picnics, reunions and other activities.
Additionally, the Humana Foundation will sponsor KaBOOM!’s Playful City initiative, a program honoring cities and towns that make play a priority and use innovative approaches to get children active, playing, and healthy. The Foundation also will fund a research study to evaluate the importance and impact of play on an individual’s well-being.
"Partnering with Humana gives KaBOOM! the capability to continue providing playgrounds that encourage activity in kids, adults and seniors,” said KaBOOM! CEO, Darell Hammond. “These playgrounds we’re building will increase community interaction across generations, while providing a space for families to be active together."
Humana and KaBOOM! first partnered in 2011 to build playgrounds in nine communities across the country including Lauderdale, FL; Seattle; New Orleans; Greensboro, N.C.; Albuquerque, N.M.; Tucson, Ariz.; Nashville; Orlando; and San Antonio. This year, the organizations built playgrounds in Alburnett, Iowa and in Thermal, Calif., as part of the Humana Challenge golf tournament. They also will build playgrounds in Tampa, FL and Charlotte, N.C. as part of the 2012 Democratic and Republican National Conventions.

About KaBOOM!
KaBOOM! is the national non-profit dedicated to saving play. Children today spend less time playing outdoors than any previous generation, a fact that is having disastrous consequences on their health, achievement levels, and overall well-being. To fight this play deficit, social entrepreneur Darell Hammond founded non-profit KaBOOM! in 1996 in Washington, D.C. with a vision of creating a great place to play within walking distance of every child in America. Since then, KaBOOM! has mapped over 89,000 places to play, built more than 2,100 playgrounds, and successfully advocated for play policies in hundreds of cities across the country. KaBOOM! also provides communities with online tools to self-organize and take action to support play on both a local and national level. Hammond chronicles the founding of the organization and the importance of the cause of play in his The New York Times Best Seller KaBOOM!: How One Man Built a Movement to Save Play. The book details how businesses and communities can work together to save play for children across the country. All author proceeds support KaBOOM!. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., KaBOOM! also has offices in Chicago and San Mateo, Calif. For more information, visit www.kaboom.org.
