Funding opportunities

While our programme does not cover travel costs, there are a number of opportunities to get support for your project. Some of our residents managed to get financial support for travel and/or accomodation expenses. Dentro La Terra can support you by providing references or invitation letters to support your application(s).

In addition, in an effort to facilitate your research you will find here some tips and resources that may be helpful as you look at ways to get financial support for your residency project at Dentro La Terra.

Getting ready

Before looking at opportunities linked to specific fields of work, make sure to check:

• your governmental local, regional or national funding schemes for culture / art / mobility of artists

• travel fund opportunity of your country's embassy in Italy

• residency-related funding opportunities of your national Institute for Culture (such as Institut Francais, Goethe Institut, Bristish Council, etc)

• residency-related funding opportunities of your Ministry of Arts/Culture or of your Arts Council

• bilateral foundations and associations between your country and Italy

While some of the above institutions may mobilize support for your project in a relatively short time, it is important you plan your fundraising well in advance, if you don’t want to miss potential opportunities.
