Who is it for? Large and medium-sized cultural organisations, associations and structurally organised groups | no funding for solo artists
 

How much? Applicants must request at least €50,000 and contribute at least 20% of their own equity and/or third-party resources.
 

Submission deadlines: Every year on 31 January & 31 July (12pm)

We develop multi-year, application-based funding programmes on current cultural issues through extensive research and consultation with the cultural scene. Its funding enables theatres, libraries and museums, for example, to engage with new audience groups and critically examine their existing structures.

The application periods for our current programmes are all closed. At the moment we are exclusively funding projects currently in progress.
 

Update: We will provide new information about funding opportunities here on this page at the end of 2026.
