The City of Chur is awarding a grant of 10,000 francs to support the development of cultural projects and works. Cultural professionals with ties to Chur may apply through August 9, 2026.

The annual grant is intended for professional artists with ties to the city of Chur—whether through residence, citizenship, or a stay of several years. Depending on the number and quality of submissions, the grant may be awarded to a single individual or distributed across multiple projects. The goal of the city’s grant is to provide financial support to cultural artists working on the substantive development of cultural projects or works. Funding is provided for work and development processes such as research, conceptualization, artistic exploration, or the development of new projects.

Interested cultural practitioners are invited to submit their applications by August 9, 2026, to the City of Chur’s Cultural Affairs Office. The application package must include a letter of motivation, a resume or short biography, documentation of previous work, and a project description. Documents may be submitted by mail to the City of Chur’s Cultural Affairs Office, Poststrasse 37, 7000 Chur, or electronically as a PDF file (max. 5 MB) to kulturfachstelle@chur.ch.

Submitted applications will be reviewed by the City of Chur’s Cultural Affairs Office and forwarded to the City Cultural Commission for consideration. Based on the Commission’s recommendation, the City Council will decide on the award of the grant. The decision will be announced in September 2026.
