Spandau promotes creative diversity: 140,000 euros for cultural projects!
Berlin, Deutschland - In the district of Spandau, the cultural diversity is promoted by the fund of decentralized cultural work. A total of 140,000 euros are available for 2025 to support a variety of projects. The first round of funding already included 90,000 euros, while a further 50,000 euros were provided in the second round. In the second round of funding, applicants can apply for a maximum of 10,000 euros per project, which offers a lot of space for creative ideas. These financial means should help promote cultural exchange and diversity within Spandaus, such as [berlin.de] (https://www.berlin.de/ba-spandau/aktuelles/pressemaytreiungen/2025/Pressemage department.
for 2025 a total of 18 cultural projects were selected, which reflect the different facets of local cultural life. This includes concerts, theater performances and interactive events that are intended to strengthen the sense of community and promote the creativity of the citizens. Special projects include the "Ost West hearing. Yun-Haus concerts 2025" of the International ISang Yun Society e. V. and the play "The process of Franz Kafka" of the Magma Theater. The diversity of the funded projects is created by the commitment of artists, associations and initiatives that all contribute to the cultural landscape of Spandaus.

The applications for funding reflect the strategy of supporting artists and initiatives. The application is clearly regulated: a written application with a project description, curriculum vitae and financing plan is required. In addition, the high quality projects must be approved in order to be approved as part of the available budget. Projects that work specifically with children and adolescents are excluded because there is a separate funding program for this, as can be read on the website of the berlin.de.
The decentralized cultural work, which also supports cultural projects in other Berlin districts such as Tempelhof-Schöneberg, shows that the cooperation between artists, communities and administrations has a positive influence on cultural exchange. In Tempelhof-Schöneberg, similar funding is provided for projects in the areas of exhibitions, concerts, performances and more, so that the idea of cultural support in Berlin is thought holistically. Information about the application in Tempelhof-Schöneberg can be viewed on DECONTRALE-KURTURWARK.de.
