Study Abroad Program

AICF provides study abroad support for Israeli artists in music, dance, and visual arts who have reached the highest levels of accomplishment in Israel and have been admitted to the most prestigious conservatories and universities worldwide. The program has helped our artists to study at remarkable institutions such as the Berklee College Of Music, Juilliard School, The Royal Academy of Music, Belas Artes, and Hanns Eisler School of Music Berlin, among others.

We are pleased to announce that the Polonsky Foundation supports a number of designated grants through this program for excelling students studying in the UK and Europe. The Abroad Grants program in Jazz has been sponsored by the “Karen Green Memorial Study Abroad Scholarships” in partnership with the Canada-Israel Cultural Foundation since 2022.

The Study Abroad Program for Israeli musicians was also supported by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation, which awarded grants to 20-25 exceptional artists studying outside of Israel each year, during 2019-22.
