District is located on the grounds of the Malzfabrik compound in Berlin Schöneberg. The aim of our institution is to promote art and culture, in particular artists and artist collectives that reflect the contemporary from a critical position. Our focus rests on artistic ideas that deal with urban space and its appropriation as well as a new understanding of social issues. District’s Studio Grant program concentrates explicitly on the promotion of
contemporary female artists. Since 2010, we have regularly awarded a studio grant to a professional female artist who represents an independent position. The next scholarship holder will be awarded the use of a 15 m2 studio in our building for a period of 6 months starting at December 1, 2012.
