BRIEF EXPLANATION

The application round for the Art Platform Programmes grant will start from mid January 2022. With this grant, the Mondriaan Fund wants to provide subsidies to art platforms that use their programme to contribute to a high-quality and diverse range of contemporary visual art in the Netherlands and to grow and engage an audience with it. Small art initiatives, collectives, and visual arts organisations with programmes ranging from 1 to 4 years can apply for a contribution. All types of applications are welcome within this grant. In fact, having diversity is of great importance. A varied offer ensures a full visual arts field in the Netherlands and a varied audience. Presenting contemporary visual art is one of the core activities for the art platforms that wish to be considered for a contribution. Programming is important. So, before you apply, know what you are doing, why you are doing it and for whom you are doing it and describe this in your application.

Within this grant there are 4 categories of art platforms that, in conjunction with each other, must provide a wide range of contemporary visual art in the Netherlands. Before you apply, consider carefully which category is most suited to your practice and plans:

How do you choose the right category?

In its assessment, the committee may consider whether the applicant considers itself to be in the correct category. Depending on that opinion, an application can be rejected or awarded within a different category.

The committee may be asked to consider the necessity of an application in its assessment. If the applicant has already been awarded a contribution in previous years, for a programme that is still running, the committee will be asked to weigh this critically.

All assessments and advice within this grant will be published online after the results.
