Please join us on Wednesday, October 4 at 6:00pm ET for an in-person Rome Prize Information Session in Boston/Cambridge, hosted by Harvard University. All prospective Rome Prize applicants in the Boston metro area and beyond are welcome. (The event is not limited to faculty or students at Harvard University.)

The information session is free and open, but we request that you please register in advance.

The program will include a presentation about the Rome Prize by AAR President Peter N. Miller with two 2019 Fellows: Joannie Bottkol (historic preservation and conservation) and Jim Carter (modern Italian studies). An extended Q&A will follow. Light refreshments will be served.

The final deadline to apply for the Rome Prize for the 2024–25 academic year is November 15, 2023. This event offers the opportunity to get your questions answered before the deadline.

Rome Prize Fellowships are available in ancient studies, architecture, design, historic preservation and conservation, landscape architecture, literature, medieval studies, modern Italian studies, musical composition, Renaissance and early modern studies, and visual arts. The Tsao Family Rome Prize will also be awarded to a humanities scholar whose project explores the relationship between Chinese and Mediterranean philosophical traditions.

Rome Prize Fellowships include a stipend, room and board, and an individual workspace at AAR’s eleven-acre campus in Rome.

Register to attend and learn about the Rome Prize and its application process.
