VandenEnde Foundation supports the cultural ecosystem in the Netherlands with a strong emphasis on developing young artistic talent and strengthening the entrepreneurial side of the arts. It is especially active in performing arts, offering scholarships for study and training as well as project support for professional artists and institutions that expand cultural reach or create new cultural initiatives. The foundation also backs large-scale public cultural events through collaborative financing tools like Blockbusterfonds.
Mix of annual scholarship programs, periodic open calls for project grants, and collaborative financing via loans or guarantees for major events. Grants are typically around €5,000 for scholarships, while project and event support varies by program and is often disciplined through application windows or partner selection rather than continuous open funding.
Watch the foundation’s program-specific application windows closely: scholarships have discipline-based deadlines, project grants open through a portal on set dates, and some opportunities are partner- or invitation-based. Applicants should align proposals with talent development, cultural entrepreneurship, or broad public cultural impact, and young artists seeking training or study support should apply through the relevant scholarship track.
