"Freelance artists have withstood the effects of coronavirus for over a year now and have not let the pandemic bring them down," said Dr. Carsten Brosda, Senator for Culture and Media. The support offered by the "Elbkulturfonds" is important in the second year of the pandemic. "At the moment, we need the prospect of a post-pandemic era and of artistic ideals that unfold their creative power again fully," Brosda added.
