The Sabancı Foundation provides long-term support in the fields of culture and the arts. We have supported the State Theaters – Sabancı International Adana Theater Festival for 23 years, the Ancient City of Metropolis Excavations for 21 years, the International Ankara Music Festival for 17 years, and the Turkish National Youth Philharmonic Orchestra for 16 years.

The Sabancı Short Film Competition has been organized since 2016 under the motto “Short Film, Long Impact,” aiming to raise awareness on social issues through art, leverage the creative perspective of cinema, and encourage and promote young talents.
