Promotion 2018
At its meeting on 19 April, the Culture Committee approved the funding of 26 projects from the city of Chemnitz for 2018. The focus of the funded projects is in the socio-cultural field - the aim is to promote cross-disciplinary, cross-thematic and cross-generational cultural practice with the broad participation of citizens. Thanks to their co-operation in international exchange, projects that have already received funding have been able to focus on innovative content.
The allocation of the funding of around 45,000 euros was discussed by a panel of experts, headed by the City of Chemnitz's cultural department and consisting primarily of representatives from various youth and cultural organisations, experts from the cultural advisory board and the Office for Youth and Family Affairs. The majority of the Culture Committee voted in favour of the working group's proposals.
There was particular demand for projects in which young people can engage in artistic and creative activities and actively participate in the development, realisation and follow-up.
