Our sponsored projects stand for the diversity of culture in the region.

Our calendar of events includes current exhibitions, media formats and events made possible by our funding.

The Board of Trustees approves new projects in two funding rounds each year. The cultural events made possible by this usually take place in the following twelve months. Larger projects sometimes require several years of planning before they can be implemented. The calendar of events provides information on current cultural events from the funding portfolio.

Approved projects in the first funding round 2025

"Socially relevant topics such as the history of women's archives and outreach cultural work at different locations show that our cultural scene is diverse and committed and actively involves many people."
