Winter Bazaar
December 2012 The first event for Poliana in her new home was an art bazaar, with the hope of raising funds for people in need, in particular for the refugees, living in dismal quarters outside the town. The bazaar for the needy took place on December 29 & 30, with many participating artists and artisans,and donations of all kinds, to be sold for this cause. In addition, there was a presentation and projection of 2 short documentary films by Stelios Kraounakis and Efi Latsoudi, with an entailing discussion. The first night ended with soothing music by saxophone player Irene Papanikolao. Thank you everyone for your participation in this attempt for a good cause. |
