We are happy to personally accompany projects that we support, so we concentrate our funding activities on the Basel region.

How can you apply for funding?

In our Notes for Applications, you can find all the information you need.

The submission periods for applications are:

We will take decisions during and after these periods. You will be informed promptly of the decision concerning your application.

Applications are possible in the following areas:

• contemporary visual and performing arts
• art in architecture
• music and art therapies
• pedagogy (in particular: Steiner/Waldorf education)

We do not support:

• courses of study or training/scholarships
• public appeals for donations, crowdfunding

In the performing and visual arts, we primarily support the creative process of young artists at the beginning of their careers. In all other areas, we focus on projects that focus on the present and adopt an expanded perspective that looks to the future.

Examples of projects we have already supported can be found in our annual reports. Of course, we would be happy to answer your questions in advance.
