International Support
OCA’s International Support provides support for international activity and participation in projects and exhibitions abroad for artists and art professionals from Norway.
International support is one of OCA's support schemes which aims to strengthen and realise international activity for contemporary art from Norway.
International Support provides funding for two main types of activities, both of which can be applied for using the same application form:

International Production Support is funded by the Ministry of Culture and Equality with a budget of NOK 3.000.000 in 2024.
Application deadlines are February 3, May 3 and October 3. Applications are assessed three times per year by the OCA jury.
