Creative Industries Fund NL: Open Call Residency Abroad

Creative Industries Fund NL: Open Call Residency Abroad

Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie: Open Oproep Residency buitenland
Funding for a working period in a residency abroad

The Creative Industries Fund is one of the 6 national cultural funds. It provides grants that contribute to promoting high-quality standards, development, and professionalisation of the contemporary creative industry in the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

With this open call, the Fund wants to stimulate the artistic and professional development of established designers and makers. In this regard, residencies serve as a retreat for research and experiment. The emphasis is on exchange and reciprocity; the selected theme or subject must also be relevant to the residency location or the organisation facilitating the residency. It is also important that the proposal relates to the local context and aligns with a shared question, subject, or relevant issue.
