Samuel H. Kress Grants for Research and Publication in Classical Art and Architecture

The Samuel H. Kress Grant for Research and Publication in Classical Art and Architecture funds publication preparation, or research leading to publication, undertaken by professional members of the AIA. Its purpose is to assist scholars in preparing, completing and publishing results of their research in Graeco-Roman Art and Architecture, and the broader Mediterranean world of Classical antiquity. Awards may be used for research leading to the publication of an art historical monograph or for costs associated with publication, such as image licensing. Grants are open to scholars of all nations, though applicants must be AIA members at the Professional level in good standing. Applicants still in the research stage must have a publication contract in place with either a non-profit or commercial publisher. Research may be undertaken at domestic or international universities, libraries or study centers, or through excavation or preservation projects of Classical sites. The program is administered by the Publication Subvention Committee which is comprised of AIA members with scholarly expertise in the areas designated for the Grant.
