Giving Approach

Primarily scholarship-based giving with one annual open application cycle for younger craft professionals and one larger invite-only/nominated award every two years. Typical awards are around 45,000–54,000 SEK for study/practice support, while the major stipend is 150,000 SEK.

How to approach this funder

For the annual scholarship, apply between March 1 and May 1; applicants must be 35 or under and have vocational training in a craft field, with plans for at least three months of study or practice in Sweden or abroad. The larger stipend is not open for applications and is awarded through nomination, so strong candidates should be visible to the craft community and nominated by relevant stakeholders.
