Funding in the Field of Visual Arts

The funding supports artists, museums, and galleries in Styria in the implementation of non-profit projects in the field of visual arts. Private individuals, non-profit organizations, and public institutions can submit applications at any time. Funded are exhibitions both domestically and abroad, catalog productions, and similar initiatives that have a clear connection to Styria. A prerequisite is that the application is submitted before the project begins and that all necessary documents – including a detailed application form with project description, cost breakdown, and financing plan, as well as an artistic CV – are complete. The funding is provided as a direct grant to sustainably strengthen the regional art and cultural scene.

Through continuous funding opportunities, a flexible framework is created that supports both innovative individual projects and institutional programs. The goal is to promote the diversity of artistic formats and to increase the visibility of Styrian visual arts at the national and international level. The provision of funds enables applicants to realize creative concepts and enrich the cultural offerings in museums and galleries. Interested artists and cultural institutions can find further information on the application process and funding requirements on the cultural portal of the State of Styria.
