Here are the upcoming opportunities for July 2020: ## [**The Bridge: Experiments in Science & Art**](http://www.sciartinitiative.org/the-bridge.html) The Bridge is a four-month long virtual residency program funded by [SciArt](http://www.sciartinitiative.org/) that runs from September through January. Matched based on fitness from an open call application, each pair is comprised of professionals who are in the arts, the sciences, or both. Residents are required to keep a weekly blog on their activity and projects, documenting the collaborative process over time. In four months, residents accomplish as much as is natural to their synergy; some pairs end their work together at the conclusion of the residency, some pairs continue their work indefinitely. As a virtual residency program, collaborative potential is not limited by geography. Process and projects unfold physically where residents are located, and virtually online through resident's blogs. "The Bridge" is open internationally to artists, scientists, technologists, and creative professionals. Applications open every June, for their September - January residency. ### **Geographic Focus** Global ### **Deadline** July 1, 2020 ## [**Frieze Impact Prize**](https://frieze.com/article/announcing-frieze-impact-prize-partnership-art-justice) [Frieze](https://frieze.com/), [Endeavor Foundation](http://www.endeavorfoundation.net/), and the [Art for Justice Fund](https://artforjusticefund.org/) are accepting applications for the Freize Impact Prize.
