Support for Amateur Music

The statewide funding in Baden-Württemberg supports the collaboration between schools and music clubs as well as non-association amateur music ensembles through needs-based grants. Carriers of a non-profit association or an interest group in the field of culture and music based in Baden-Württemberg can apply at any time. The aim of the measure is to strengthen social self-help capacities and provide sustainable assistance for self-help in amateur music. Music and singing clubs, state music associations, as well as independent ensembles that wish to realize musical projects together with children, youth, or adults can particularly benefit. This continuously available funding promotes both the support of young talent and cultural participation in the region.

Submissions are accepted without fixed deadlines, allowing flexible planning of future cooperative projects. Eligible for funding are individual cooperations between schools and clubs as well as non-association initiatives in the amateur music sector. The support helps to strengthen local networks and stimulate exchange between educational institutions and cultural practitioners. In this way, diverse musical offerings arise that contribute to cultural diversity in Baden-Württemberg and sustainably encourage voluntary engagement on site. Interested organizations can easily submit their project ideas to the responsible regional council, thereby making an important contribution to strengthening amateur music.
