Dr. Marschner-Stiftung is a Frankfurt-area foundation that supports people and projects in science, culture, and social initiatives, with a strong preference for practical, locally rooted work in Frankfurt and Offenbach. Its giving is notably hands-on and unbureaucratic, backing everything from museum exhibitions and art restoration to youth media, school-based education projects, and community initiatives. The foundation also makes a distinctive one-off exhibition award for curatorial concepts, showing a clear interest in high-quality cultural programming and public-facing arts institutions.
Primarily small-to-mid-sized project grants with a local geographic focus, plus a €25,000 invite-only exhibition prize. The foundation accepts written applications for general project support, appears to fund a mix of cultural, educational, and social initiatives, and favors timely, concrete, and partnership-oriented proposals.
