Geld voor je kunst! (English)
If you have a project that encourages participation in art and culture in The Hague, you can reach out to CultuurSchakel to apply for subsidy. The scheme is called Geld voor je kunst! (Money for your Art).The application process is simple, and you can apply as an individual, association, or foundation. The maximum subsidy amount is € 2.000,-.
Announcement: From Subsidy to Financial Support
Starting this summer, the options for financial support from CultuurSchakel will change. From now on, we will refer to it as financial support instead of subsidy. The conditions will be clearer, and the application process will be simpler.
Due to the discontinuation of COVID-related additional funding, the budget will be slightly lower. However, there will still be a good balance between support for foundational activities and room for innovation. This aligns with developments in The Hague’s cultural sector.
You can apply for financial support for:
- Artistic development (e.g. coaching or workshops)
- Small or large presentations by your group
- Basic support, such as artistic direction and venue rental
Important Dates
- All new guidelines will be available on our website soon.
- Applications can be submitted from September 1 to 15.
- Support applies to projects taking place in the autumn of 2025 or in 2026 (depending on the specific guideline).
You don’t have to submit complicated plans; simply pitch your idea to a jury in ten minutes. If social distancing applies, you can share your pitch through a video submission. Within a week you will be informed whether you are granted a subsidy or not. Before we invite you to pitch, we’ll ask you to complete a simple online form and upload an estimated budget.
