Sitting atop a hill overlooking Italy’s capital, the American Academy plays host to a range of artists, composers, writers and scholars who gather in this distinctly Italian setting aimed at stimulating creativity and collaboration. Correspondent Seth Doane explores the history of the Academy and finds out how Rome is inspiring the mostly American fellows to foster new work and ideas.

Beautiful
THE ROME PRIZE… privately funded by Americans.
Most governments support their Rome residencies.
I can only dream of going to Italy, maybe in my next life👍😁
Yum-Yum
I would love to visit the academy in Rome. I would love to learn many different insights from creative people.
Your videos are always the best💯 I do receive a notification each time you post a new video.. We'll have regrets for things we did not participate in…Investment should always be on any creative man's heart for success in life.
It must be an amazing energy there
Fantastic… but I don’t see concepts of disagreement. Passive acceptance does not broaden the mind but only reiterates blind agreements.
Thank God it's not an engineering school anymore. America has more then enough practical working engineers. No job is on hold because there's no one to do the math.
We need more black artists, film students, and piano players, because they get things done!
Italian HEAVEN🥰
BRAVO
2:01 "Very unique" doesn't make sense. Something is either unique, or not unique.

Thank you for sharing this story.

This segment made me cry!
To think – a space to create myriad kinds of beauty, of words and music, art and film, visions; without worry of how to feed the body or rest your head!
Ethereal and energizing, both. And surrounded by like souls…
I am not of that caliber, but the tiny creative spark in me flares with hope and happiness for the fellows who are.
Wonderful story.
The Eternal City is like no other.
Do not go in August.
Do your HW.
Buy tickets online to avoid hours in line.
Go to historic sites early in the day or later in the day.
If time allows visit other sites in Lazio and get lost. No, really.
Interacting with locals will be the best part of your trip.
Starve
Well, seems like a vacation from my life. I think we would all enjoy some creative time. We should all get mandatory creative time throughout the year.
Humans are such a remarkable and mystifying species..
💗
As an artist,poet, musician and researcher I. Would love to spend time in this inspiring and beautiful location ❤️
