Per Forma: grants for performing arts projects
This is a chance to receive up to EUR 8,000 for the professional development of performing artists.
Put on a theatre performance, organise a small electronic music festival, buy props for an improvisational theatre — the organisers will support any initiative that involves new approaches and rethinks cultural heritage.
Implement your idea in Ukraine between June and October.
The competition is organised by Kyiv Contemporary Music Days with the support of the Performing Arts Fund NL and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science of the Netherlands. This is one of the thousands of EU opportunities for Ukrainians.
