I dont see how we are getting "answers". Disagreeing with program design is not a question.

Tbh though, that doesn't sound that special. Many countries subsidize artists.

There's no good way to evaluate the result anyway.

Grants like this at a small scale is generally inconsequential to the country.

You could evaluate how much art gets created

[ergocoder]

Anyone could have created a godly insane amount of arts if they don't care about quality.

The quantity of arts isn't a good metrics.

[bawolff]

Sure, but you can also evaluate if it gets awards, or buyers, buzz, etc.

I agree its pretty subjective and not the essiest thing to evaluate, but i think its certainly possible.
