Calling All Creatives In Malta! Have You Got A Big Idea To Share?
If you’re an artist, designer, dancer, video maker, cultural professional or the representative of any kind of organisation with an innovative artistic or digital vision – perhaps an imaginative school or a colourful NGO with an interest in the media and culture sectors – then listen up.
Creative Europe is the European Commission’s flagship programme to support the culture and audiovisual sectors, and they’ve just had their fund massively increased to €2.4 billion for projects to support creative industries.
That’s from interior design to video-gaming, in theatre and the performing arts, film production, fashion or flamenco, and a glorious rainbow of ideas in between.
Yes, this is a giant technicolour dream-coat of a fund that’s now open: the scope is big and bold, and it’s set to see the arts and media in Malta blossom over the next few years.
If your idea will promote culture and heritage and language, encourage cultural and linguistic diversity; increase the economic potential and competitiveness of the media, cultural and creative sectors; help your field become more sustainable and inclusive, or increase your digital offering then (almost) Any Dream Will Do!
And here’s something else to really sing about: if you’re applying for funding for a project from that €2.4 billion on offer, because Creative Europe is one of the best EU funded projects, they will cover up to 90% of the costs for you.
Because the friendly Creative Europe Desk Malta team know that putting an application for funding together can be daunting, they’re making it wonderfully easy for you.
If you’re thinking of applying or funding, they’re happy to meet you in person (with coffee and cakes) or on-line (although you’ll have to bring your own cake, you won’t have to share!)
Thinking about a mural in the playground or an immersive tour of a heritage site?
A new music festival or a video game packed with digital adventure?
Whatever your blue sky thinking, make it real with Creative Europe Desk Malta!
