Approximately 60 Fellowships – or residencies – are awarded to artists and scholars in the various disciplines of the Arts and Humanities (Archaeology, Architecture, Classics, Dance, Film/Video, History, Landscape Architecture, Literature, Music, Philosophy, Theater, and Visual Arts) per year. Although the Fellowship is not a cash prize, Fellows are provided with living quarters, a work space, and full board for a month at the Study Center in Bogliasco, Italy. The Bogliasco Foundation does not offer training or courses.
