Since 2004, when Offene Ohren e.V. was founded, a lot of people helped in different ways to offer an adequate platform for concerts of improvised music in Munich to first-rate artists.
These are on one side the members of Offene Ohren e.V.. They help with their annual membership fee and by making donations. In addition, their intensive voluntary work in organising the concerts is a substantial contribution to our success. On the other side the musicians themselves help us. Despite the fact of our tight budget, they accept our invitation and enjoy playing for us and for you!
Special thanks to several musicians living in the Greater Munich area, who borrow us their technical equipment or drum set when required.
Many thanks to all those, who help us to attract an audience for improvised music and distribute information on our events by publishing in magazines and newspapers, posting bills, spreading out flyers or by placing a link to our internetsite.
Despite of all this support we financially depend on donations and sponsorships.
In the last few years these institutions helped us:
City of Munich, Department of Arts and Culture
Canadian Embassy
Consulate General of the United States in Munich
Flemish Community (Vlaamse Gemeenschap)
Fondation Suisa
Swiss Arts Council prohelvetia
Arts Grants Committee Sweden
