Cultural Promotion

The Goethe-Institut promotes culture of all kinds. We support the exchange of artists between Canada and Germany and help to make German culture accessible in Canada.

Residency programs in Canada

A residence abroad gives artists the opportunity to gather valuable experience and inspiration for the further development of their work. A new environment and encounters with artists from other cultural backgrounds offer ideal conditions for expanding one's own creativity, inspiring the further development of artistic processes and helping to build an international network at the beginning of a worldwide career.

Call for applications – Conversations on Performance – FTA

Looking for: Young theatre and dance artists based in Germany and aged 25 to 35: directors, playwrights, choreographers, performers, designers and anyone with a performing arts practice.

Translation funding

Our translation funding programme supports the publication of books by German authors in another language.

Film archive

Our film archive contains more than 650 films in DVD format (PAL). Films can be rented for non commercial screenings by educational institutions, such as schools, colleges and universities, as well as cultural institutions, such as art galleries, cinematheques and museums.

Residency Programs worldwide

The Goethe-Institut would like to offer a "space for new perspectives" with its residency programs. Each year, artists and cultural practitioners are invited to live and work, for some time, in a different country and culture.
