Bruckner Foundation bursaries
The Bruckner Foundation bursaries were created in March 2001. From 2010 to 2016, two bursaries were awarded to a ceramics student of Switzerland’s Schools of Applied Arts Appliqués (CFC) and of the Centre for Experimentation and Realisation in Contemporary Ceramics (CERCCO), a post-graduate course of the Geneva University of Art and Design.
Since 2017, one of the two bursaries can now be awarded to ceramists, artists and designers (individual or collective project) irrespective of age, nationality, place of residence or diplomas. It is nevertheless imperative that the candidate be able to demonstrate autonomous and in-depth practice in the field of ceramics.

The Bruckner Foundation has also created partnerships with Officine Saffi Milan and Salon C-14 Paris. In this context, it grants a two-month bursary each year to one of the artists who takes part in the competition or exhibition
