Culture Is Athens

We highlight Athens as a capital of culture, creation, cooperation.

The Municipality of Athens designs and implements the three-year plan Culture is Athens with the aim of upgrading, highlighting and integrating the cultural fabric of the city. Through it, we develop a culture network that unites the different aspects of Athens, the modernized structures with its ancient and newer monuments, we carve new routes.

We embrace artists, cultural workers, creative professionals, cultural institutions and together we create the canvas, a field of networking, exchanges, substantial interaction between them, while utilizing the synergies of culture with other sectors, opening new opportunities for the city. We place Athens in the center of the world cultural map as a fertile field of creative processes, a center of creative economy, a modern city for its inhabitants and visitors from Greece and abroad.
