NAPA at the Arctic Sounds Festival: How to get funding for your project
2025-04-17 14:30 - 15:30 | School of Rocks, Sisimiut, Greenland
Come and meet NAPA at the Arctic Sounds Festival in Sisimiut! 💜
NAPA hosts an event on Thursday 17th of April at the School of Rocks at 14.00-15.30. NAPA’s advisor, Pipaluk Lykke, invites all interested festival goers and artists to come by and hear about NAPA’s funding programs, and how to apply:
“NAPA is looking forward to present the two Nordic funding programmes at the Arctic Sounds Festival this year. Anyone interested in getting their creative projects out there in the Nordic sphere, and who likes to work in co-producing collabs in celebration of cultural interactions, is more than welcome. Questions about application and funding, and everything else funding, can be asked. I look forward meeting local and international creatives in my childhood hometown.”
NAPA is teaming up with Suialaa Arts Festival and the Alianait Arts Festival on the event, so come and hear more about the Arctic activities!
See you in Sisimiut!
