About Goethe-Institut Nigeria Support & Connect Program 2024

The Goethe-Institut Nigeria supports Nigerian solo artists, collectives, and cultural experts in implementing their projects.

For the past years, the Goethe-Institut Nigeria has supported a wide range of projects created and implemented by Nigerian artists and initiatives in various art forms: music, contemporary dance, photography, films (documentary), theatre, visual arts, literature and many more.

Program Details

Goethe-Institut Nigeria also supports artists and cultural experts who are invited as participants to festivals or cultural projects in Germany or on the African continent but do not have enough funding to join.

We regard this support as a very crucial and important one to give young and upcoming artists in the cultural landscape of Nigeria a chance to be heard and seen.
