To be eligible for the grant, you have been working as a curator for five years or less. Priority will be given to applicants who have not yet previously visited the US, or specifically Washington or Baltimore.

To apply for the grant, please submit your request through the registration form, clearly indicating which elements you would like the grant to cover. Here, you can also upload a motivation letter.

Accommodation in Washington

Please note that CODART is not arranging accommodation for participants attending this CODARTfocus. After careful consideration, we found that a group booking did not offer any significant cost savings compared to individual reservations. Therefore, participants are responsible for arranging their own lodging. We suggest using websites like Booking.com or Airbnb as they offer a wide array of options to suit various preferences and budgets, also in the vicinity of the locations visited.

For those seeking more specific recommendations, CODART members in Washington have suggested the following hotels, all conveniently located near the National Gallery of Art and the National Museum of Women in the Arts:
