Musicafonds

As an impulse centre, Musica has always concerned itself with providing a dynamic musical landscape which offers equal opportunities for participation and development. Through the Musicafonds, the organisation aims to help support artistic projects with exceptional societal and artistic value.

Impulses for participation and development

In our broad range of educational activities, we are confronted with an ever-increasing demand for high-level accessibility for disadvantaged or underprivileged people, people with a mental or physical disability, older people, people in prison, refugees etc.

The Musicafonds aims to help lower the threshold for high-quality musical participation and development for disadvantaged groups, and is receptive to project proposals from individual artists or partner organisations. Innovative projects for talent development and music education research can also apply for support.
