Organisations

Cultural organisations and artists that wish to organise an art or cultural project in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, that is deeply embedded in society, critically question the world, and involve communities and people from all walks of life. The project may be organised with international partners and/or invitees from within or outside the Kingdom of the Netherlands, as long as the organisation itself and the involved communities are based in the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Travel
How much

Not specified.

Requirements
  • Art and cultural projects should use radical imagination to show that another world is possible, creating and providing space for a multitude of perspectives;
  • Artists involved in the project should engage people and communities in their artistic process (social practice) to collectively arrive at alternative perspectives;
  • Initiatives within the arts and culture sector should seek horizontal, equitable, and more inclusive forms of collaboration;
  • The initiative aligns with the transitions to a more sustainable, social and creative world that the VriendenLoterij Fund aims to accelerate;
  • The initiative contributes to a healthier balance between ecological, social, and cultural sustainability;
  • The initiative reaches and engages new communities;
  • The initiative is not one-off but aims to structurally change practices and embed and share insights and results with other (VriendenLoterij Fund) partners and sectors;
  • Artists and cultural institutions executing initiatives aim to connect with societal partners and society as a whole. They link parties that do not naturally collaborate and explore alternative, more equitable forms of collaboration.
