SUMMARY:Remembrance Route 40 - 44
DESCRIPTION:This activity is only available in Greek. \n\nThe Memory Route is a tribute to the thousands of anonymous victims of hunger during the occupation\, as well as the victims of executions by the occupying forces.

SUMMARY:First Cemetery of Athens: An Open-Air Sculpture Gallery II
DESCRIPTION:This activity is only available in Greek.\n\nArchaeologist and guide Michalis Giohalas leads a special tour through the sculpture garden of the First Cemetery of Athens\, in collaboration with the This is Athens City Festival.\n\nBeyond the “Sleeping Female Figure”\nThe memorial of Sofia Afentaki—widely known as the “Sleeping Female Figure” by Yannoulis Chalepas—is perhaps the most iconic sculpture in the cemetery. But it is far from the only one of artistic significance.\n\nThis alternative route leads visitors off the main thoroughfares and into quieter paths that reveal a lesser-known\, yet equally remarkable\, side of Athens’ open-air sculpture garden. Along the uphill lanes\, we encounter mausoleums of celebrated dead\, where mortals meet immortals—and grand aspirations for remembrance coexist with overwhelming silence.

SUMMARY:Guided tour at the EMST in the exhibition WOMEN TOGETHER
DESCRIPTION:This activity is only available in Greek. \n\nThe exhibition “WOMEN\, TOGETHER” features works exclusively by women artists and takes a clear stance on a critical issue in both art history and contemporary society: the underrepresentation of women and the urgent need for action towards gender equality. While most of the works do not focus explicitly on womanhood\, they raise pressing questions around equality\, oppression and otherness. They engage with contemporary and historical sociopolitical narratives\, as well as aspects of personal and collective memory and identity.
