The scholarships of the Foundation for the Culture of Debrecen were handed over on Monday, the birthday of the Cívisváros. The foundation, established in 1991, recognizes the creative work of artists who want to contribute to the cultural life of Debrecen.
From the beginning until now, the person of the board of trustees as well as the person of the chairman have changed a lot, but one thing has never been: always looking for creative values.
– emphasized Mihály Duffek, chairman of the foundation’s board of trustees, a professor at the Faculty of Music of the University of Debrecen, adding that he still found the values that make many people quiet and not public.
The president also stressed that the foundation’s job is to help even in difficult times, and as he said, this was also the period of the coronavirus epidemic. “During the first wave, when the situation of a lot of people was impossible and self-sustaining artists in the field of culture were in a bad position, the foundation was able to help the applicants,” he revived.
This time, a total of 18 applications were announced to get acquainted with the foundation from the amount voted by the municipal assembly.
Mihály Duffek emphasized that the awards are now a special rank for those who win them, in many cases they are also mentioned in professional CVs.
