our partnerships

Since 2007 Foam has been supported by the BankGiro Loterij with an annual contribution for presentations and to help increase participation of the audience. Since 16 August 2021, the BankGiro Loterij and the VriendenLoterij have joined forces under the name VriendenLoterij.

The renewed VriendenLoterij is committed to all organisations that make life more beautiful by dedicating themselves to preserving the cultural heritage and the well-being of people. Think of monuments in your neighbourhood, the theatre, the museum or the local sports club. For restoring artworks by Dutch masters or renovating the sports club.

De Brauw Blackstone Westbroek N.V. is an international law firm, advising more than 70% of the headquarters of multinationals in the Netherlands. The cooperation with Foam started in 2010.

De Brauw has mainly two objectives in its cooperation with Foam. Firstly, the development of art and culture - in addition to education and the environment - are a priority in the CSR policy of the office. Secondly, De Brauw has an interest in contributing to the cultural climate of the city. Foam and De Brauw have a similar ambition: to focus on young talent.

Giving people opportunities. That is the mission of the VandenEnde Foundation, the private cultural fund set up by Joop and Janine van den Ende. Since 2001 Foam is one of the cultural institutions that has been supported by the VandenEnde Foundation. Its main objective is to foster interest in culture and to encourage cultural entrepreneurship. The VandenEnde Foundation therefore gives talented young people an opportunity to grow in their careers by awarding them study and working grants. The VandenEnde foundation is also the main founder of the DeLaMar Theatre in Amsterdam.

The Foam Talent Programme and the biennial Talent issue of Foam Magazine are supported by the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation since 2017.

As part of the arrangement the Foundation acquires works by one of the Foam Talents each year to add to their collection of contemporary photography, the Art Collection Deutsche Börse. Through joining forces the Foundation and Foam further develops the stage for talented artists.

From 2017-2021, Foam has been involved in the organisation of recommended, a biennial fellowship for three promising emerging photographers working in the artistic field.
