Travel Grants

The IAS provides three types of conference travel grants to support graduate students, junior scholars, and international scholars presenting at any of the conferences where the IAS sponsors sessions. We also offer a travel grant for an emerging scholar to attend the Annual IAS/Kress lecture in Italy.



Chair Silvia Bottinelli (2026) leads the Awards Committee that awards travel and research grants to Italian Art Society (IAS) members engaged in the study of Italian art and architecture from prehistory to the present. The current Committee Members are Judith Steinhoff (2025), Emily Fenichel (2026), and Loren Whittaker (2026), and Catharine Wallace (2027).
