Marko Brecelj and his friends from DPZN (Moderate Progress Friend’s Association, Slovenia) received a grant of 500 euros as a form of financial support from their municipality in 2015. They changed the full amount in 1 cent coins, weighing 120 kilograms and brought it in front of the city hall. Throughout the protest he repeated: “Svi smo ponosni.” (All of us are proud.) This protest targeted the cultural policy of local authorities, who are undervaluing the independent cultural scene by supporting it with 500 euros for a 7 day- long event.
