Konstnärsnämnden / Swedish Arts Grants Committee

The Swedish Arts Grants Committee is a government agency. Our function is to support artists who work within the areas of visual art, design, music, dance, theatre and film. We award grants and allowances and promote international cultural exchange. In addition, we compile information on the financial and social conditions of artists.

The agency's International Music Programme aims to create, develop and deepen the musicians and composers contacts with foreign institutions, individual professional representative, such as agents, producers, critics, colleagues, audiences and markets and thereby contribute to the artistic development and improved employment and income opportunities.
The goal is to strengthen the artists own networks and opportunities to create their own sustainable international Contacts.
