I have already witnessed some other anniversaries with art workshops; quite successful ones. This year there will be a concert on November 13 to start with at the Bellapais Abbey at 20:00. I could not find out the theme nor the performers.
On November 14, between 10:00 and 13:00 a ceramic workshop for the youngsters at the Atatürk Cultural Centre.
Now we come to fine arts:
On Saturday November 14, at 11:00 in the morning, just while next door the kids are kneading small art works, the exhibition of our renowned local artists will be opened with their work on display for this special day at the same venue.
The participating artists are:
Salih Mustafa Çizel
Hüseyin Özinal
Feridun Işıman
Feryal Sükan
Ayhan Menteş
İlkay Önsoy
İnci Kansu
İsmet Tatar
Osman Keten
Emel Samioğlu
Şenol Özdevrim
Gökçe Keçeci Şekeroğlu
Türksal İnce
The exhibition will be just for one short week until November 20; viewing times at working hours, whatever that is, I think from 9.00 – 13.00 and 14:00 to 17:00. Some of our most important artists I would say.
To conclude the celebration activities there will be the
II. International Folkloric Dance Festival
(Gala)
Date: 16th of October 2009
Time: 8 pm
Place: Near East University in Ataturk Cultural and Congress Centre
