Fortune Knights and Million-Dollar Burdens: A Petition Has Been Launched Against the NKA 'L. Simon Tax'

A petition against the nomination fee introduced in 2012 highlights its burden on artists and organizations, calling for its abolition. The letter to Minister Tarr Zoltán emphasizes the financial strain on independent artists and organizations, with significant fees compared to awarded grants. It also criticizes the lack of diversity in decision-making bodies, where certain individuals dominate for years. The petition demands changes to ensure no organization holds a majority in the National Cultural Fund's (NKA) boards and limits individual terms to two cycles.
