SPD Proposes Emergency Meetings with Cultural Artisans

In the face of renewed Corona protection measures, Axel J. Scherer, cultural policy spokesman for the SPD city council fraction, has called for a meeting to provide a platform for dialogue between the creative industry and politics and administration.

Scherer emphasised the importance of slowing down the spread of the virus, but also highlighted the impact of the measures on those who work in the creative industry. He stressed that it's not just artists who are affected, but also those who work before and behind the scenes, from stagehands to producers.

The creative industry plays a significant economic role in Oberhausen, with its many cultural and leisure offerings. Scherer pointed out that those who earn their living in Oberhausen's leisure and creative industries are paying the highest price due to the current situation.

He urged the city to help those in the creative industry as urgently as possible, calling for an urgent simplification of Oberhausen's Corona special funding for leisure, sports, and culture. All those in need must receive their money quickly and as unbureaucratically as possible, according to Scherer.

The meeting is intended to address concerns and develop solutions for the challenges faced by the creative industry. Scherer suggested listening to those affected to develop ideas and alleviate fears. He also warned about the economic consequences of the new Corona protection ordinance for Oberhausen's leisure and creative industries.

The Social Democrats are calling for a meeting of Oberhausen's creative industry with representatives of politics and administration. However, the search results do not provide specific names or representatives of the creative industry in Oberhausen with whom the SPD faction intends to hold a meeting.

The meeting is seen as an opportunity to address the economic impact of the Corona pandemic on the creative industry in Oberhausen. Scherer explained that it's crucial to act now to ensure the survival of the creative industry in the city.

For the second time this year, individuals in the creative industry are facing an uncertain future. The meeting aims to provide a much-needed platform for dialogue and collaboration to find solutions and support for those in the creative industry during these challenging times.
