The city of Thessaloniki presents an exhibition that will fascinate the art enthusiasts. The Telóglion Foundation of Art holds an exhibition dedicated to Toulouse Lautrec, the bohemian artist of the Moulin Rouge. His works depict in the most exciting way the atmosphere of the turn of the century, the so-called “beautiful era” in Paris.
Enjoy “Melody city” at the Thessaloniki Concert Hall, a music performance for schools that illustrates vividly the eternal fight between good and evil. What makes this performance unique?
