Funding of the Kulturkorridor Gera Foundation

The regional grant funding of the Kulturkorridor Gera Foundation is aimed at private individuals, non-profit organizations, educational institutions, interest groups, and associations in Thuringia that implement projects in the field of artistic-musical education for children and youth. The goal is to strengthen art and culture locally as well as to enrich public and vocational education through workshops, exhibitions, performances, and the provision of artistically designed instruments. Measures that open access to musical practice and artistic creation for young people and promote talented young talents are supported. Applications can be submitted at any time, provided the projects are located in Gera or the immediate vicinity and explicitly target the promotion of young audiences.

Personnel and material costs as well as event costs and the acquisition of instruments are funded. The financial grant is provided as a subsidy, enabling sustainable implementation of creative formats. Interested parties benefit from a straightforward application process without a fixed deadline and transparent award criteria. By supporting a variety of event formats – from interactive workshops to public concerts and exhibitions – a vibrant cultural offering for young people is created. The measures help to strengthen musical skills, expand artistic forms of expression, and revitalize the regional cultural scene in the long term. The foundation thus promotes creative learning processes and enables the establishment of networks between local actors and international artists.
