The Ministry of Culture and Tourism will provide a total of 2023 million liras of support to 2024 theaters in the 476-55 art season.

Deputy Minister of Culture and Tourism Dr. A "Financial Support Evaluation Commission for Private Theaters" meeting was held under the chairmanship of Batuhan Mumcu, with the participation of the General Managers and commission members of the art institutions affiliated to the Ministry.

The commission, which evaluated the applications for the 2023-2024 art season in order to benefit from the aid provided to the projects of private theaters, decided to provide support to all theaters that completed their applications completely.

In this context, a total of 77 million liras will be supported for 95 projects, including 304 traditional theatres, 476 children's play theaters and 55 professionals.

Thus, it was aimed to increase the contribution of private theater halls to artistic life and ensure its continuity, to encourage registered employment in the field of theater, and to contribute to the development of Turkish theater by preferring works by Turkish playwrights in applications, as in recent years.

Private theaters for which the Ministry provides financial support can be accessed on the official website of the General Directorate of Fine Arts.
