Cultiva has supported more than 1,000 projects over 25 years. These include initiatives in arts, cultural events, youth participation, innovation environments and major cultural institutions. Cultiva also invests in developing cultural infrastructure such as Kunstsilo, meeting places, digital culture platforms and other public art initiatives. 

Established in 2000 after the municipality sold part of its shares in Agder Energi, the foundation today manages a substantial capital base. The annual return is allocated to projects that strengthen creativity, competence and cultural infrastructure in Kristiansand.
