First publication: Minister of Culture and Sports Miki Zohar announced that for the first time, his ministry will subsidize the tuition fees of male and female students at a number of educational institutions in the art and acting subjects, supported by the Ministry of Culture, by 50 percent.
The investment that the minister informed his office is of NIS 26 million per academic year, subject to the approval of the state budget.
In exchange for this, the students will be required to contribute a certain quota of volunteer hours to the community.
Among the supported institutions are Rimon, Beit Zvi, Nissan Nativ, Sam Spiegel, Ma'ale, Puppet Theater, Musrara, Impro, Vertigo and Yoram Levinstein.
Minister of Culture and Sports Miki Zohar said to Walla!
Culture: "The scholarship, which will subsidize half of the tuition, will help talented young men and women develop and professionalize their skills, even if they do not have the financial basis to do so. Being an actor, singer, creator or painter is no longer a 'dream' - I am convinced that the move will make many young people more to choose their artistic skills, to become professional and to be the spearhead of Israel in the world of culture"

The Director General of the Ministry of Culture and Sports, Kafir Suissa, told Walla! Culture: "The tuition subsidy will allow every young man and woman with talent in the field of art to realize their potential and choose art as a profession.
Every student in Israel should study without being bothered by the payment of tuition fees, unless they are artists, who should devote themselves to the joy of creation.
