About Bera Evensens Legat

Bera Evensens Legat is a Norway-based music fund focused on people with ties to Nord-Norge, especially those showing strong effort in their own education or in singing and music performance. It also supports Harstad-based choirs, music corps, and orchestras, with occasional grants for music and singing events in Harstad. The funder appears to prioritize local cultural preservation and individual talent development over broad nonprofit funding.

Giving Approach

Annual, application-based grants with one deadline each year (May 10) and awards made in early June. Grants are relatively modest to mid-sized ($3,000-$50,000) and may go to individuals or to local music organizations in Harstad, with support described as occasional or exceptional for events.

How to approach this funder

Apply by May 10 each year; decisions are made in early June. Strong applications should clearly show connection to Nord-Norge or Harstad, explain the applicant’s progress or merit in music/singing, and if applying as an organization, emphasize local choir, band, or orchestra activities.
