The Norma Fund is intended for projects or activities that promote the cultural, social, and professional interests of performing artists. Think of a theater performance or a concert series, for example.<\/p>\n<h2>How can I submit a Norma Fund application?<\/h2>\n<p>Before starting your application, please read the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stichtingnorma.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Reglement-NORMA-fonds-1-februari-2024.pdf\">Norma Fund<\/a> (in Dutch) regulations carefully.

It is no longer possible to apply for the Norma Corona Fund, the Norma Booster Fund, the Norma Starter Fund, and the Norma Phoenix Fund. As a performing artist, you can only apply to the regular Norma Fund if you are, for example, creating a new performance or concert series.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the Norma Fund?
