With the supplementary accessibility funding, the state of North Rhine-Westphalia supports the equal participation of people with physical, sensory, cognitive, and psychological disabilities. For measures to remove barriers, up to €5,000 per cultural project is provided for the NRW Regional Culture Program.

The events will inform cultural actors who wish to submit an application to the Regional Cultural Programme NRW about the possibilities for using the supplementary funds. They will also provide assistance on how to complete the application form.

Registration is done via the RKP Cultural Office where the application is submitted.
