Subsidy battle in Utrecht: ‘It’s embarrassing that you are so dependent’

How do you determine who does or does not receive

“Flabbergasted”, “stunned”, “in shock” and “a disappointment”. Cultural institutions that came off poorly in the report of the Cultural Memorandum Advisory Committee reacted with outrage yesterday. According to the committee, the Museum van Zuilen, Impakt festival, BAK and Festival Tweetakt, among others, should no longer receive a subsidy. But how do you determine how the subsidy pot is distributed?
