Kulturstiftung Schloss Wiepersdorf supports an international residency program centered on art, culture, and scholarship, with a strong emphasis on time-limited fellowships for individual creators and small collaborative groups. Its grants are especially geared toward literature, visual arts, composition, and performing/experimental arts, while also welcoming humanities and social science researchers when their work fits the residency’s interdisciplinary setting. The foundation also uses public programming and exhibitions to connect contemporary work with the history of Schloss Wiepersdorf, especially its Romantic-era legacy.
Primarily residency-based support rather than project grants: three-month individual/collaborative fellowships with a monthly stipend plus housing and meals, and shorter group residencies providing in-kind support. Applications are competitive and deadline-based for individual fellowships (annual windows), while group fellowships are accepted continuously; special fellowships are announced separately when available.

Check the foundation’s current fellowship announcements and apply through the residency program rather than a general grants portal. Individual/collaborative fellowships have specific annual application windows, group fellowships can be submitted continuously, and applicants should clearly show a fit with literature, visual arts, composition, performing arts, or interdisciplinary research.
