The word limit per question is 400 words. Brevity is encouraged.

The single PDF document should include your name and surname at the top and be written in English or Armenian. 

• CV and other relevant materials such as portfolio or reel, as applicable.

If you have these materials prepared, please proceed to the application portal. ​

Yes. So long as your works relate in some way to themes or subjects relevant to Armenian culture.

No. You can apply from anywhere in the world. Mandatory meetings will take place online, although optional events will be ongoing in Yerevan.

No.

You are free to spend the stipend as you need. But we do require “first look” at any projects we help you with during this fellowship. That means Creative Armenia and AGBU should be given the opportunity to produce or invest in the project before you share it with others.

In addition to attending scheduled meetings, we expect our fellows to participate actively in our creative community. That may involve pitching content, leading a workshop, or mentoring emerging artists. We expect our fellows to become leaders of our creative community and cultural ambassadors for the Armenian people.  

We’ll consider you alumni of Creative Armenia and AGBU - and cultural ambassadors for the Armenian people. You’ll have access to our networks and priority consideration for our other programs. We’ll work together to develop and promote Armenian culture.
