Basel is looking for ideas for cultural education projects
For nine years, the Basel City Department of Culture has been working with Education Projekte Region Basel to implement art education projects for schools. Since 2012, the kult&co competition has complemented the cultural education initiatives. It is taking place for the fourth time this year.
We are now looking for mediation projects with new approaches and partners from the non-institutional sector that expand and complement the existing education projects.
Artists and cultural practitioners from all disciplines who are planning an artistic project for 2015 with Basel schools or youth groups are eligible to take part. A total of CHF 70,000 in prize money is available for the competition program. The maximum contribution per project is CHF 20,000.
Funding is provided for educational projects with an artistic focus that demonstrate an innovative approach and enable an in-depth exchange between cultural professionals and young people. The award-winning projects will be publicly evaluated in Basel in 2015. The jury meeting will take place in December 2014.
