Goslar strengthens culture: 285,000 euros for creative projects 2025!

In the last council meeting before the summer break, a significant decision was made in the city of Goslar: the funding for art and culture in 2025 received a strong upswing. As reported, as [regionalheute.de] (https://regionalheute.de/goslar/hher-stellenwert-kunst-kult- und-kultur-goslar-schlißst-zuschuesse-goslar-harz-1750874653/), cultural grants were decided in the amount of local cultural facilities and associations in particular. In addition, another 173,000 euros flow to cultural agents who have long -term support agreements. Smaller support amounts of a total of 10,500 euros are awarded directly by the administration, which raises the entire funding to almost 285,000 euros.

But not only the city of Goslar shows commitment in cultural policy. Another chapter has been opened in the district of Goslar today: the investment funding program for smaller cultural institutions was established. As reports [Harzregion.de] (https://harzregion.de/details/digitler-forschritt-fuer-Kulturprojekt-Hute-Hute-Hute-Hute-Hute-Hute-Online Application-Fuer-Regional-Kulturfoerung-i-landkreis-goslar.html), this program is aimed at small cultural institutions and cultural associations in Lower Saxony. They are funded in the preservation of structural measures as well as the procurement and expansion of digital infrastructure and event technology. The focus is also on energetic measures: sustainability and environmental protection should be very important here by supporting cultural institutions in improving their energy efficiency.

The energy efficiency of cultural institutions is a decisive topic for the future. The funding program focuses on the introduction of renewable energies and the optimization of heating and cooling systems. The aim is not only to reduce ecological footprint, but also to save energy costs in the long term. To this end, applications can be submitted by September 30, 2023 at the Harz Regional Association. Further information on the application can be found [harzregion.de] (https://harzregion.de/digitler-forschritt-fuer-kulturprojekt-hute-T-Tie-online application-fuer-Kulturfoerung-im-landkreis-goslar.html).

The state of Lower Saxony also supports cultural projects at various levels. According to mwk.Niedersachsen.de there are three pillars of cultural support. The first includes the institutional promotion of cultural institutions, the other two sides focus on project and program funding as well as regional cultural support. This means that innovative cultural projects that involve the community can also be funded by the country.

Overall, it turns out that both the city of Goslar and the state of Lower Saxony give a strong commitment to support art and culture. It becomes clear that the value of cultural offers is not lost even in times of crisis. Interested cultural institutions and clubs should use the available grants all the more.
