Routes in Marpissa

“In the Light”

25, 26, 27 August 2017

 

The volunteer team of “Routes in Marpissa” organises the 8th  three-day, experiential, and cultural festival on 25, 26 & 27 August in the traditional settlement of Marpissa, Paros.

The man, the place and the radiant light of  the Cyclades. From dawn to the  bright morning light and from the warm colours of the sunset to night, through the prism of the Routes in Marpissa, we create thematic stations, visiting sites and art exhibitions, framed by workshops, lectures, concerts and games. A unique experience that unfolds a kaleidoscope of culture and knowledge.

 

Inspired by the village, accompanied by the residents and aiming at action, come and walk with us in Marpissa…in the light!
