Impact Hub Athens designs & stages cultural events in collaboration with an array of institutions, communities, art collectives and other organizations. Through these events we aim to enhance one’s cultural identity and enable the audience to join a quality and authentic cultural experience.
ETHNOFESTS
We attempt to give color to the neighborhood and to foster co-creation among the people of Kypselis neighborhood That’s why we co-design, curate & stage Ethnofests, small festivities of the neighborhood in collaboration with diverse ethnic groups of Kypseli, who live, act & represent a part of the Athenian nest. In those Markets, a different ethnic community at time presents its culture, customs and traditions by bringing over hand made products, memorabilia & decorations as well as its traditional know-how through a handful of workshops. And of course, its folk music & dance moves and traditional delicacies!
EthnoFests in collaboration with the Ethiopian, Georgian & Ukrainian communities in Athens.
Local products, folk designs & fashion shows, handmade traditional products & tastes.
CINE-MAGEIREMATA
The idea is simple. We meet once a month or per two months for screening & bites! Cine – Mageiremata are themed screenings in parallel with cooking actions inspired by the movie/documentary (country of origin, theme etc).
We transform the Agora into an urban lounge, where friends, neighbors & visitors gather to watch inspiring movies and enjoy unique tastes!
