The minister told the PAP news agency that the money, secured from Poland’s budget will be used to introduce new cultural education programmes for children, as well as to develop creative ideas and popularise culture.
The ministry also wants to subsidise art schools which are supervised by the ministry.
Gliński also said that an important part of the ministry’s activity is “building a network of museums, strengthening existing ones, as well as connecting, and creating new ones when necessary.” (tf/rg)
