Open Society Arts for Community Programs 2017-18 for Hungarians

 

Deadline: October 6, 2017

Apply now for the Open Society Arts for Community Programs. The Open Society Foundations are offering support to Hungary through the New community programs, a new line of funding focused on social issues and arts and cultural projects. Since 1984, the Open Society Foundations have invested over $400 million in helping to improve the lives of millions of Hungarians from free school breakfasts to fighting corruption, to distributing scholarships and improving conditions in public hospitals.

The Open Society Foundations are grounded on the concept of an open society built on the pluralism of ideas and social participation. One of their priorities is supporting organizations and artists in the cultural sphere. They believe that free cultural activities are an important component of democratic societies, since they are just as suitable for introducing new ideas to the community, and for reflecting on traditions and history. They are therefore launching a call for proposals for funding cultural programs in Budapest.

Applications are invited on the following topics:

  • Budapest, a Living Space
  • Theatre and Debate
  • Music and Debate
  • Tradition and Innovation: The Memory of the “Place”
  • Storytelling Festival
