The Arts Promotion Centre Finland is seeking applications for its Grants for Mobility program to promote the international mobility and networking of artists and art experts living in Finland.
The objective of grants for mobility are intended for professional artists or working groups formed by them, as well as for experts in different fields of the arts.
Grants for mobility are intended for trips abroad. These trips must be connected to projects that are significant artistically or in terms of a specific artform and in connection with which the applicant shall appear or present his/her art outside of Finland.
Grants for mobility may be used to cover the costs of trips abroad insofar as other funding is not available. Acceptable costs include:
- travel tickets (using the least expensive form of public transport)
- reasonable accommodation costs
- working at an artist residence
- other direct travel costs
Funding Information
- Arts councils do not award grants for mobility amounting to less than 500 euros.
- If awarded for covering work at an artist residence, the amount of the grant may not exceed the amount of state artist grants per month (€1692/month).
Eligibility Criteria
- If the applicant is a working group:
- The application should be made by the contact person for the working group. The names of the other members of the working group should be included in the application.
- The contact person should include with the application a short description of the artistic activities of each member of the working group.
- Each member of the working group is responsible for how the grant funds are spent and for providing clarification. The contact person for the working group is responsible for submitting the clarification by the deadline.
- The working group refers only to those individuals who are undertaking the trip and not the entire working group of the project. Applications may not be submitted on behalf of another person; the contact person must be one of the persons undertaking the trip.
