This is a real-time overview of current opportunities for performing arts professionals. While we strive to keep the list as accurate as possible, it is not exhaustive. We welcome any information or tips regarding open calls that should be featured here.
Funding to facilitate meetings, exchange of ideas, and knowledge-sharing between professional artists and cultural practitioners in the Nordic and Baltic regions. The network must include partners from at least three different countries. Grants of up to EUR 20,000 are available for networks operating for up to one year. Note that the funding covers networking and cooperation (workshops, meetings, etc.) but not direct production costs for performances or tours.
The Culture and Art Programme funds Nordic co-operation in the field of arts and culture. Projects must involve partners from at least three countries, at least two of which must be Nordic. Funding is available for all project phases, including production and dissemination, with grants ranging up to EUR 100,000 depending on co-financing.
The ASF supports public programs that enhance cultural ties between the U.S. and the Nordic countries, such as performances, exhibitions, and lectures. Grants are awarded to non-profit organizations only. Typical awards range from $1,000 to $2,000. Please note that the fund does not support individuals directly, book publications, or studio residencies unless specifically affiliated with the ASF.
Mobility funding for professional artists and cultural practitioners for travel and stays within the Nordic and Baltic region (up to 14 days). The program supports international exchange, guest performances, exhibitions, and research.
Travel grants for independent performing artists for touring within Iceland and abroad. The aim is to increase the visibility of Icelandic performing arts and reach new audiences. Grant amounts are based on the number of participants and the destination.
Open call for innovative performing arts collaborations across Creative Europe countries. The fund supports artists, companies, festivals, and venues in establishing cross-border partnerships for international touring and sustainable distribution. Special emphasis is placed on projects addressing environmental sustainability and social inclusion.
