NEW YORK, NY—The American-Scandinavian Foundation (ASF)’s 4th annual competition for Scandinavian Folk Arts & Cultural Traditions in the Upper Midwest (North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan) is open through August 1, 2020! Through these fellowships and grants, ASF fosters the perpetuation of Scandinavian traditional arts and skills in the Upper Midwest while also promoting cultural exchange between the U.S. and Scandinavia.

Two kinds of awards are available: fellowships for artists and practitioners of traditional skills, and grants for public programs and community projects. All of our grants encourage both the practice of folk arts and cultures and the presentation of these arts to public audiences.
