The Institute of Classical Architecture & Classical America - Prizes and Scholarships

Prizes and Scholarships

The ICAA is pleased to offer two bi-annual prizes, The Rieger Graham Prize for architecture and the Alma Schapiro Prize for fine artists. The prizes alternate years and grant the recipient a three-month Fellowship at the American Academy in Rome, the premier overseas center for independent study and research in the fine arts and humanities. The prizes are limited to United States citizens. The purpose of both prizes is to advance the career of the architect or artist recipient and to foster the continuity of knowledge of the classical tradition as a vital aspect of contemporary culture around the globe

Also available, in years when the ICAA offers its Rome Drawing Tour, is The Edward Vason Jones Scholarship. Established in 2000 by ICAA Fellow William H. Bates III, the scholarship provides support for a qualified applicant to attend the Rome program.
