The John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation provides fellowships for advanced professionals in all fields (natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, creative arts) except the performing arts. The foundation was established in 1925 by U.S. Senator Simon Guggenheim and his wife as a memorial to a son. The foundation offers fellowships to further the development of scholars and artists in the U.S., Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean by assisting them to engage in research in any field of knowledge and creation in any of the arts, under the freest possible conditions and irrespective of race, color or creed.
