Heritage Innovation
Are you working to develop new visions or narratives about our cultural heritage, for example through an exceptional presentation, a new presentation arrangement, layout or structure, or a thematic collaboration that is relevant to society and would reach a diverse audience? If so, you may be eligible for a Heritage Innovation grant.
The Westfries Museum, for instance, received a contribution for the redesign and implementation of a program aimed at presenting a new perspective on the cultural history of Hoorn and West Friesland. The impact of globalization on the local region is the central focus of this program.
