Finding finances for your projects and/or your art practice is a recurring ritual for many artists. It is a process in which you immerse yourself in your own art practice, but also in the funds and subsidy schemes. You learn to anticipate the guidelines of the different parties and connect your values with those of the different players in the field.
In general, you can apply as an individual or as a legal entity. The latter is, for example, a foundation, association or VOF. Registering a legal entity costs money and takes time to organize. Keep that in mind with your project.
We recommend, if you take fundraising serious in The Netherlands, you get a copy of the Fondsenboek. It is quite expensive but worth it! We have a copy at the Business Station to look into!
