Driftstilskudd til frivillige organisasjoner for scenisk amatørvirksomhet

This grant program provides operational support to voluntary organizations that stimulate amateur activity within performing arts. The funding is designed to help organizations with their daily operations and costs related to specific activities, projects, and initiatives. The program aims to increase amateur activity within performing arts expressions and supports both national and regional voluntary organizations whose main purpose is to promote amateur activity in performing arts such as theater, dance, circus, stand-up, and role-playing. Organizations can apply for operational grants for up to three years at a time. Full financing is not provided; organizations must demonstrate other funding sources and a reasonable level of self-generated income. The program is managed by the Arts Council of Norway (Kulturdirektoratet) and financed through gaming revenues (spillemidler) distributed by the Ministry of Culture and Equality.
