Stichting Mondriaan Fonds is a सार्वजनिक/public culture fund that supports visual arts and cultural heritage in the Netherlands and the Caribbean part of the Kingdom. It backs a mix of individual makers, museums, cultural institutions, and project organizers, with a clear emphasis on exhibitions, international presentation, collection development, and heritage programming. A distinctive thread is its support for contemporary art and heritage projects that engage audiences and, in some cases, address historical memory such as the history of slavery.
Primarily program-based grants with many continuous-intake applications; support is project-specific and often tied to exhibitions, acquisitions, heritage initiatives, or international presentations. Some programs have fixed deadlines, while others appear to be rolling and open to organizations, museums, artists, and curators depending on the program.

Apply through the specific program that matches your project type and geography; many schemes are continuous intake, but some have set deadlines (for example, the slavery-history awareness program lists a 16.07.2026 deadline). Strong applications should clearly show artistic or heritage quality, public visibility, and fit with the program’s exact purpose—especially for exhibitions, collection moves/acquisitions, or international presentation.
