The Indonesian Arts and Culture Scholarship (IACS) is a flagship program of the public diplomacy of Indonesia on arts and culture.
The awardees will be assigned by the organizing committee to different art centres that are located in 4 (four) provinces, namely Bali, West Sumatera, East Kalimantan and East Java.
For approximately 2 (two) months, the awardees will live within or around the art centre, allowing them to learn about the arts and culture of Indonesia, experience the local heritage and interact with the local community. This will eventually strengthen mutual understanding, friendship and people-to-people cooperation.
