Summary/Abstract: The issue of financial provision of education in the sphere of arts and culture is one of the most important problems in economics. The unsatisfactory state of education in the sphere of arts and culture is caused by insufficient funding, inefficient use of educational resources, lack of a well-rounded, research-backed program of financial provision for the sphere, a program that would be based on a strategic vision of the country’s development. In the earlier years of economic hardships the sphere of arts and culture institutions was mostly designed for budget financing. The current state of financing education in the sphere of arts and culture is rather disappointing. The disposition of funds is inefficient and no changes appear in using new sources of this sphere’s financing. However, it would be much easier to surmount the crisis of financing education institutions in terms of a favorable legislative atmosphere, which would help the spheres of education, arts and culture to develop rather that to survive. So, financing education in the sphere of art and culture by means of state budget will be efficient only if the funds which the state provides for education financing are sufficient and have a stable, reliable and well-proportioned basis.
