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!
