Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian

Welcome to theCalouste Gulbenkian Foundation,also known as the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum.

Located in Portugal, this foundation was created by Calouste Sarkis Gulbenkian, an engineer and businessman who is very important in the oil industry, as well as having a great hobby, collecting.

Our goal is to promote organizations and enable people to develop and grow through science, art and education in order to promote and support a more sustainable society.

We want culture to be accessible for everyone, which is why we work to ensure there is a big shift in terms of education and care for the most vulnerable people.

We also publicize and give voice to research and scientific knowledge. In addition, we have an arts center, a museum, a library and a choir with the best voices and musicians.

We are made up of a large team of professionals,both collaborators and partners who work to fulfill the objective of our Foundation.

At Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation we carry out projects and programs through grants and scholarships. Furthermore, we have organizations in several countries, such as the United Kingdom, Portugal and France, among other places in the world.
