Stokroos Foundation: Seed Grant

Stokroos Foundation: Seed Grant

Stichting Stokroos: Seed Grant
Funding for young and emerging visual artists and designers

The Stokroos Foundation was founded in 1992 by Paul Deiters (1952-2017). His love for people, nature, and art inspired him to contribute to a better world. In 2005, Stokroos began implementing its objective: to support designers and visual artists.

Stichting Stokroos supports unique and unconventional creative practices, prioritizing innovative ideas and original uses of techniques, materials, and crafts. Supported projects may include travel abroad.

The Hanzenfonds of the Cultuurfonds contributes to the budget, with Stichting Stokroos allocating these funds to projects that emphasize craft education and skill enhancement.
