Scholarships Barcelona Crea – Creation Factories 2025 in La Brossa
The Free Arts Center of the Joan Brossa Foundation opens three calls for creative grants in the Barcelona Crea Grant – Creation Factories 2025 modality.
the Barcelona Crea Scholarships – Creation Factories are an initiative of the Network of Creation Factories, with the support of the Institute of Culture, to support the pre-production processes that accompany the creation of artistic proposals: conceptualization, conception, research, experimentation, documentation and essay. With these grants, we want to contribute to maintaining the city’s cultural momentum by offering resources to develop artistic research and innovation processes in the city.
From the Joan Brossa Foundation, together with the Institute of Culture, we invite 3 Scholarships Barcelona Crea – Creation Factories in three different modalities:
– Modality Dramaturgical writing Carme Montoriol: in which the proposals of playwrights or textual artists with a markedly experimental profile will be assessed.

– Asset activation modality: intended for performing, visual or textual arts artists who work from the heritage of both Joan Brossa and any other artist or heritage element of the city of Barcelona and its periphery.
