Studios, within the walls of Nicosia —————————————————————————————————————————
The Visual Arts Festival’“Open Studios, within the walls of Nicosia” is organized for the fourth successful year in the heart of the capital, the historic centre of Nicosia within the walls. An enriched group of OPEN STUDIOS artists reopen their studios, Greek Cypriots, Turkish Cypriots, and all others within the whole town inside the walls, for nine days and invite the public to wander in the old town, visit their artistic studios, see their most recent creations, talk with them, and get a taste of the process of artistic creation. The purpose of the festival is the cultural rejuvenation of the old city in its totality, through a pioneering and contemporary meeting between people and artists within the walls of Nicosia. This year we have an Information Center for OPEN STUDIOS, at the far end of Ledra street, just before the roadblock, hosted at the Information Center of Nicosia Municipality. There the ‘artistic map’ of Nicosia which includes all Open Studios, will be offered, with easy to understand instructions for visits and the program of activities. The planned guided walking tours are expected to attract many people, according to last time’s organization. Also at the Information Center characteristic artworks of participating artists will be exhibited and information material on the history of the Open Studios.
