The World Youth Orchestra Foundation and the Vietnam National Institute of Culture and Arts Studies launched a Call for Projects to foster creativity and innovation among young Vietnamese artists, encouraging them to push the boundaries of traditional and contemporary artistic expressions.
The call is part of the "Sounds of Brotherhood" project that is taking place in 2024 in Vietnam, with the support of Fondazione CDP – the foundation of the Italian National Promotional Institution Cassa Depositi e Prestiti - and the contribution of Temix and LCA Studio Legale, in collaboration with the Embassy of Italy in Hanoi, the Consulate General of Italy in Ho Chi Minh City, and some important Vietnamese and international partners.
Vietnamese artists from different disciplines can apply. Winning projects will be financed through a grant, thanks to the support of the Fondazione CDP. Any Vietnamese resident in Vietnam who is over 18 years old is eligible to participate. Disciplines include music, theatre and visual arts. Artists are allowed to apply to only one of three strands: A, devoted to completed projects; B, dedicated to emerging young talents; C, conceived for initiatives that are still in progress. Applying as a student is also possible, since no experience is required.
Each strand will be awarded a grant of €1,300, for a total amount of €3,900 covering three prizes, and might also have two winners. In that case, the prize will be split among the awardees.
Applications must be sent by August 10th, 5pm (Ha Noi time GMT +7).
A jury formed by the World Youth Orchestra Foundation’s members and the Board of the Vietnamese National Institute of Culture and Arts Studies will evaluate all the applications, taking into consideration originality, feasibility, and artistic merit.
The awarding ceremony will be held by mid-September 2024.
After the successes achieved since 2001 in all the artistic and musical activities developed nationally and internationally, the World Youth Orchestra Foundation continues its commitment to spreading the ideals of peace and dialogue between peoples through art and music with the “Sounds of Brotherhood” project, scheduled for this year in Vietnam.
