Protest with Whistles Outside the Deputy Ministry of Culture – Reaction to Perceived Degradation

Artists and cultural workers are preparing to mobilize in protest against the Deputy Ministry of Culture on Friday, March 6th, at 12:00 PM, outside the Ministry's offices. The protest is in response to what they claim is the ongoing degradation of artists and art workers by state bodies. Protesters will use whistles as a symbolic gesture. The mobilization will be independent in nature, without the presence of parties or parliamentary candidates. The protest comes at a time of tension due to delays in funding and uncertainty regarding the scheduling of cultural initiatives. Artists are demanding clear information, a stable schedule, and institutional consistency.
