Types of awards
ArtsLink kicked off in 1992, with support from the Soros Foundation, the National Endowment of the Arts and the Trust for Mutual Understanding. CEC ArtsLink broadened the scope from the former Soviet countries to the 30 countries of Eastern and Central Europe, Russia, Central Asia and the Caucasus. Since its inception, ArtsLink has made over $4 million in funding available to artists, arts managers and arts organisations through ArtsLink Residencies, Independent Projects and ArtsLink Projects awards. The programme has a cycle of alternate year deadlines according to discipline.
ArtsLink Residencies
This programme offers artists and arts managers from the eligible European and Asian countries a five-week residency at an established, non-profit arts organization in the US.

Since 1999 CEC ArtsLink supports also the artists and arts managers to undertake projects in the United States in collaboration with a US non-profit arts organization or individual artist. So far this award has been received by the following artists from Slovenia: Dušan Kirbiš (2000), Katarina Pejović (2002), Emil Hrvatin and Damijan Kracina (2003).
ArtsLink Projects
The award supports American artists, curators, presenters and arts organisations to undertake projects in the eligible European and Asian countries. Over 300 artists have received awards to work in 25 countries.
Participants from Slovenia
Since 1993 CEC Artslink has facilitated residences and collaborative projects in co-operation between Slovene and US organisations and artists. Every year at least one Slovene artist or cultural manager participates in the five-week residency in the USA or works on a collaborative project.
an international arts service organisation founded in 1962 to enable citizens of the United States and the Soviet Union to share ideas and build mutual trust. Today CEC Artslink serves to create and sustain constructive, mutually-beneficial relationships between the USA and the 27 countries of Central Europe, Russia and Eurasia, with supporting programmes and projects that promote dialogue among arts professionals in all disciplines. Over the past 13 years Artslink has made over three million dollars in funding available to US artists and arts organisations working with colleagues in the region. Funding is provided through Artslink Projects, Artslink Residencies and Independent Projects. Other CEC Artslink programmes include VisArt: Contemporary Issues in the Arts, the Jubilee Fellowships and the Open World Exchanges for Russian cultural leaders. CEC Artslink organises lectures at its premises, and since 2004, in co-operation with the Consulate General of Slovenia in New York, several Slovene artists, theoreticians, gallerists and cultural managers have been presented there.
