Mission & Vision
Promoting culture, creating perspectives – the Hamburg Cultural Foundation sees itself as a catalyst and companion for artists and cultural practitioners in Hamburg. Through its funding commitment, it aims to enable new artistic developments and forms of expression, enrich the diversity of the cultural landscape, and sustainably strengthen access to culture, especially for children and young people. By collaborating with private donors, companies, and foundations, it contributes to a vibrant and future-proof cultural location in Hamburg.
Target groups
The funding programs are primarily aimed at freelance emerging artists from all disciplines – ranging from visual and performing arts to music, literature, and film, as well as photography and interdisciplinary projects – who develop and present their work in Hamburg. Another focus is on offerings from the independent scene for children and youth, particularly cultural and integration projects for young people with refugee or migration backgrounds. Support is provided to individuals, groups, and initiatives in the early years of their professional careers who pursue innovative, experimental approaches.
