International Funding

TCG/ITI Travel Grants, funded by the Trust for Mutual Understanding, are designed to foster cultural exchange and artistic partnerships between theatre professionals in the United States and their counterparts in Russia and Eastern and Central Europe. These grants support travel in either direction between theatre artists, administrators and educators. Applicants must be either a U.S. not-for-profit theatre applying on behalf of a theatre professional(s) or an individual theatre professional(s) who is a U.S. citizen or permanent resident of the U.S. Beginning this year, the award amount has increased to $3,000.

Designed by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and TCG, the New Generations Program-Future Collaborations awards $3,000 travel grants to theatres and theatre professionals for geographically unrestricted international travel, enabling them to share ideas and techniques and/or collaborate with their colleagues around the world. Applicants must be either a U.S. not-for-profit theatre applying on behalf of a theatre professional or an individual theatre professional who is a U.S. citizen or permanent resident of the U.S. These travel grants will be awarded in the fall/winter and spring/summer seasons.
