Changes to the rules governing art funds, initiative

The rules governing Tuusula’s art funds should be updated so that all establishment, maintenance and ancillary costs associated with art acquisitions are covered in full by the art funds.

The first art programme was drawn up in 2015 and presented as a general plan for the arts. Art programmes have been drawn up for various areas in Tuusula for the acquisition of public art. More than one million euros has recently been spent on the maintenance and establishment costs of art

. For example, approximately €500,000 from the Tuusula municipal budget was used for the establishment and additional costs of Monio’s light art. From the taxpayer’s point of view, these costs are not insignificant or reasonable. For this reason, we propose the above-mentioned amendment to the rules of the art funds.
