National Minorities Residencies Grants

Sector: Culture and creative industries
Type: Grant
Location: Ukraine or EU
Deadline: 31 July 2025 at 15:00 Kyiv time
Organiser: House of Europe

These grants aim to amplify the voices of national minorities, creating a space where people can discover their culture and engage with it.

We fund collaborative art residencies of European cultural institutes with Ukrainian organisations. From music to pottery, from Ukraine to the EU, from weeks to months — you will have complete freedom in shaping the format and up to EUR 16,000 for its implementation.

The deadline is rolling — the last day of the month, 15.00 Kyiv time. We will choose winners until we run out of funds for this programme. Do not hesitate to apply — the number of grants is limited.

Ask your question to the programme manager — join the live stream on Facebook on 15 April, 15.00 Kyiv time.
