Additional call for collaborative arts festival projects in the Nordics & BSR

“Additional call for collaborative arts festival projects in the Nordics & BSR
Applications Deadline: August 16th at 23:59 CET
Open to festivals across the arts sector in the Nordic and Baltic Sea Region.

We are pleased to announce that the NordicBaltic Festival Platform (NBFP) has
opened an additional call of their fourth Call for Projects (CfP) fostering festival
collaborations in the Nordic and Baltic Sea Region (Denmark (incl. Greenland and the
Faroe Islands), Estonia, Finland (including the Åland Islands), Germany, Iceland, Latvia,
Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Russia and Sweden).

CfP winners will have the opportunity to present their idea to the regions’ arts festival
leaders at the NBFP 2018 Conference, taking place October 22-24th in Gdansk,
Poland, with a ten minute presentation and a five minute Q&A. In addition an hour of
focused networking for connecting with potential partners is facilitated. Please note
that accommodation and travel costs (up to €300) will be covered for one
representative of each CfP winner. The selected projects will also receive consulting
from the NBFP working group and visibility through various communication activities.

Applications must be submitted in English. To learn more about the guidelines and
the application form, visit the Call for Projects section on the NBFP website. For this

round of applications there will be no limitations in relation to choice of artistic
content. However, a project must be presented by a festival and aim to find at least
one partner festival from the region to collaborate with. If you already submitted an
application for the first deadline of this call, then you are no longer applicable.

We would also appreciate your help in spreading the word about this opportunity to
the festivals in your networks by sharing this email with other potentially interested
parties.

In case you have questions about the application procedure, please contact the NBFP
working group at info@nordicbalticfestivals.org.

You can also check out our streaming platform for which we are actively seeking
content. Find out more and share your festivals work to a wider audience –

Looking forward to reviewing many great artistic cooperation ideas,
The NBFP working group”
