The American Academy in Berlin--Berlin Prize Fellowships

The Berlin Prize Fellowships are for advanced study in the arts, culture
and public affairs. The Academy is a new institute for advanced study. 
It will occupy a 40-room villa, the Hans Arnhold Center in the Wannsee

The Academy invites applications from American scholars and professionals
in academic disciplines or fields of practice including the arts, and
culture, architecture, history, philosophy, public policy, law and society,

a Berlin institution such as a museum, library, archive, university, film
studio, media organization or others.
