Cultural proposals

Thank you for your interest in our Institute!

 

We receive dozens of cultural proposals every week and, unfortunately, we are not able to get back to everyone: every Italian Cultural Institute is part of the Italian public administration and must therefore follow the guidelines of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation. Even the projects that do not entail any cost must align with such guidelines.

The relevant legislation is the Italian Law n.401/1990 and the Ministerial Decree n.393/1995. As to signed contracts, the Italian Cultural Institutes abide by the 192/2017 Regulation about contracts signed abroad.  The Director of the Institute sets the cultural schedule and makes choices based on the aforementioned laws.

 

BEFORE YOU HIT SEND

 

Before submitting a cultural proposal, please check our website and our social media to make sure your project is in line with our public mission. The Institute generally favors projects with original cultural content that have never been brought to Malta and that promote inclusivity and diversity: we’re always glad to receive projects that give a fair representation of gender, sex, ethnicity, age and cultural background differences.

 

HOW TO

 

Each cultural proposal must be sent exclusively

to segreteria.iiclavalletta@esteri.it

(you DO NOT need to CC anyone else).

 

 

ESSENTIAL INFO

 

Please indicate clearly:

 

  • General details: title of the project, number of people involved, main cultural sector of reference (music, theater, dance, literature etc.);
  • Possible dates: you can indicate more than one option;
  • Technical and/or IT requirements;
  • Funding: besides the Institute’s logo and promotion, does the project require a financial contribution? If so, please specify:
    • the amount required from the Institute, including details of each entry (flights, accommodation, artist fee etc.);
    • total budget of the project.
  • References to the Italian language and culture included in the project;
  • Previous venues: has the project already been hosted by other Italian Cultural Institutes around the world and/or in Malta?

 

Also, please DO NOT include CVs and always keep the number of attachments to minimum: help us reduce our digital footprint!

 

THEN WHAT…?

 

Except for public holidays (Christmas Day, Easter etc.) and days off, the Administration Office will forward all cultural proposals to the Director within 10 days. Should we require any further detail or wish to promote any specific project, we will get back to you as soon as possible: there is no need to send reminders or update requests if you haven’t received any feedback from us.
