  • financing

The Ukrainian Makers Support Fund has been opened. Earlier, the Cabinet announced that it would set aside one million euros this year to temporarily support artists who have fled from Ukraine and Russia to the Netherlands in carrying out their working practice. The Support Fund targets both individual makers and companies. 

Applications for the scheme can be made through the Dutch Foundation for Literature. Applications can be submitted by Dutch cultural organizations on behalf of and in cooperation with an individual artist or company. The Dutch organization or legal entity may apply either for up to three individual creators from Ukraine or Russia applications, or submit one application for a company of up to 15 people. All disciplines are eligible: film, performing arts, visual arts, creative industries (including architecture and design), cultural education, cultural heritage, and literature. 

This year, the Support Fund will enable at least 95 refugee artists to continue their working practice in the Netherlands. A maximum of 9,900 available. Applications will be processed in order of receipt. The scheme is open (no later than) until Nov. 15, 2022, or as long as the budget allows.
