Hessische Kulturstiftung supports the preservation and promotion of arts and culture in Hesse, with a strong emphasis on museums, public collections, and art institutions. Its funding is highly project-based and often tied to concrete outputs such as acquisitions, exhibitions, research-based publications, and conservation or documentation work. It also backs emerging artists through scholarships and travel/residency stipends, indicating interest in both heritage preservation and contemporary artistic development.
Project-specific grants and co-funding, typically for museums, art societies, and comparable non-profit cultural institutions in Hesse; also offers scholarships/residency stipends for artists. Support appears to be competitive and program-based, with funding directed to defined activities rather than general operating support.
Apply only for clearly defined cultural projects in Hesse that fit one of the foundation’s programs: acquisitions, exhibitions, publications, or residencies. Strong proposals should show scholarly or curatorial value, public benefit, and, for acquisitions, matching/co-funding from the applicant institution; check the foundation’s program pages for current deadlines and eligibility rules.
