"Master and Apprentice" Scholarship Program
The "Master - Apprentice" Scholarship Program is aimed at folk artists from the territory of the Republic of Poland, both masters with distinguished achievements and adepts wishing to improve their skills. The goal of the program is to save local heritage and traditions and ensure the continuity of authentic folk art. The Fellowship's priorities concern educational projects that ensure the direct transmission of traditional artistic, craft and handicraft skills, made within the local community, with a special focus on skills in danger of disappearing.
The expected result of the completed educational projects is a work (or works) of folk art, folk handicrafts or handicrafts made by the adept, under the guidance of a master, demonstrating a high artistic level and proficiency in mastering the traditional skills that are the subject of the Scholarship.
NIKiDW wishes - through the foundation of the "Master - Student" Scholarship - ensure the continuity of the existence of authentic folk creativity, cultivated by folk artists from all over Poland, all ethnographic and cultural regions and subregions, all fields and specialties, national and ethnic minorities, living both in the countryside and in the city. For these reasons, the "Master - Pupil" Scholarship Program assumes the restoration of both the folk artist, folk creativity, and the direct transmission of tradition, to their rightful place in Polish culture and in the Polish system of values.

"Scholarship Program for Folk Artists".
The Scholarship Program for Folk Artists is aimed at folk artists, craftsmen and handicraftsmen from the territory of the Republic of Poland. Its goal is to save local heritage and traditions by supporting the individual artist, giving him or her the freedom to work on a work that is important both from the point of view of his or her development and from the perspective of spreading knowledge of unique skills and traditions, which are an important part of the identity of the local community. The Fellowship's priorities concern creative projects rooted in the local community of the folk artist, with a particular focus on skills and content in danger of disappearing.
The expected result of the completed creative projects is the production of a work (or works) of folk art, crafts or folk handicrafts, demonstrating a high artistic level and proficiency in the mastery of traditional skills, and showing a high potential for strengthening skills and knowledge at risk of disappearance.
NIKiDW wishes - through the foundation of the Creative Scholarship - to ensure the continuity of the existence of authentic folk creativity, cultivated by folk artists from all over Poland, all ethnographic and cultural regions and subregions, all fields and specialties, national and ethnic minorities, living both in rural and urban areas. For these reasons, the Scholarship Program for Folk Artists assumes the restoration of the folk artist and folk art to its rightful place in the Polish system of culture and values.
