support de ateliers
Support young artists at a crucial time in the development of their practices.
By endorsing Ateliers Support Fund (ASF), you actively contribute to sustaining the creative heritage of De Ateliers. Donations are meant for the stipends of the participating artists, who thanks to your support, can develop themselves to become the best possible artist and prepare themselves for a professional international career.
Supporters include private collectors and corporate collections, as well as cultural funds, institutes and organisations who seek to support the artistic development of young and talented artists from the Netherlands and beyond. Their donation plays a crucial role in safeguarding De Ateliers as a nurturing programme for artistic innovation.
The contribution of Ateliers Support Fund is of crucial importance to De Ateliers and a substantial addition to the subsidies De Ateliers receives from the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science (OC&W).
