The Foundation’s objective and purpose is the promotion of creativity in the broadest sense of the term through encounters with people working in the arts and culture, as well as through engagement with various artistic and cultural disciplines. This fosters self-confidence and tolerance, hones visitors’ powers of judgement and critical faculties, and encourages respect and solidarity towards people and ideas.

This is achieved in particular by establishing and running TINNE young museum Klausen, an art, culture and educational ensemble for children, young people, adults and families in Klausen. In this context, there is a particular focus on participation and inclusion. Inspired by the artists’ colony that was based in Klausen from 1874 to 1914, the aim is to once again make the town a magnet for the creation of contemporary art.

The Foundation pursues charitable purposes. It does not pursue profit-making objectives or distribute profits.
