As an individual creator and/or collective (art and craft) you can apply to the Culture Fund for ongoing funding for your public-oriented activity or for a contribution to your professional development. In cooperation with voordekunst, the Culture Fund now supports individual culture makers and collectives in all disciplines, such as, for example, artists, theater makers, spoken word artists, restoration masons, photographers, young musicians, heritage gardeners, ceramists, paper restorers, etc.
You can apply in two ways. A development budget is intended for research, workshop/master class/course/training, experiment and equipment. The maximum amount that can be applied for is 5,000 euros.
You can also apply for a matchfunding contribution for projects that are presented to an audience, for example in the form of an exhibition, performance or presentation. This contribution serves to support a crowdfunding campaign on voordekunst. The contribution is made as a donation within crowdfunding and gives the campaign a boost, motivates other donors to also contribute and involves the public in the project at an early stage. The amount of the matchfunding contribution varies between 500 and 1,500 euros where the contribution can be up to 50% of the target amount.
