Funding of the Peter Weiss Foundation for Art and Politics e.V.

The Peter Weiss Foundation for Art and Politics e.V., based in Berlin, continuously offers grants for artistic and politically-aesthetic educational projects. Funding is provided for initiatives in the fields of culture, media, music, education, as well as research and innovation, which focus on the multifaceted relationship between art and politics. Eligible to apply are individuals, non-profit organizations, and educational institutions that design publications, research projects, conferences, educational events, or cultural events. The aim is to inspire creative interpretations, scientific perspectives, and public debates, thereby enabling interdisciplinary exchange between artists and scholars.

For a successful application, a concise project outline, a meaningful CV or institutional profile, and a realistic financing plan are required. Evaluation is based on the relevance to the relationship between art and politics, the artistic quality of the project, as well as the economic and organizational feasibility. Projects must demonstrate public interest or educational relevance and establish a direct connection to the link between art and politics. Thanks to the continuous submission option, interested parties can submit their applications at any time and thus provide impetus for cultural-political educational work. The Peter Weiss Foundation primarily supports artists, cultural workers, and scholars who creatively and informatively address socio-political issues with their projects.
