The Bank of Cyprus Cultural Foundation is planning a new series of activities/events to mark the 10th anniversary of the FANEROMENI 26 Arts Festival (2016-2026) and issues an OPEN CALL to young artists, groups, and creators to submit their proposals.

This year's theme pays tribute to the past and serves as a source of inspiration for the future, with proposals that unite the culture, art, history, collections, and museums of the foundation into a vibrant cultural mosaic.

We celebrate our journey and plan the future of culture through a journey of art, history, and music dedicated to the foundation’s collections, exhibitions, and museums that inspire us.

Through a decade of activities, collaborations, and inspiring moments, our Festival has evolved into a vehicle of cultural identity—a living dialogue between art, tradition, and contemporary expression.

This year's theme seeks to honour this journey, focusing on the elements that connect us:

Art as a bridge of communication,

History as memory and inspiration,

The Cypriot dimension of the collections and the Foundation's museums as guardians of our cultural heritage.

The combination of tradition with contemporary technology.
