Students are encouraged to apply for funding to support individual research projects that occur outside the United States. The recent winners will study photography in Paris, glassmaking in Murano, Italy, wood sculpture techniques in Uruguay, Peruvian textile techniques, Japanese culture and opera activities in Rome. Last year VCUarts awarded over $30,000.00 in these grants.
