Become A Beekeeper for A Day
2021-11-14, 2021-11-07, 2021-10-31, 2021-10-24, 2021-10-17, 2021-10-10, 2021-10-03, 2021-09-26
During the workshop “Become a Beekeeper for a Day” guests watch two short documentaries on life and importance of bees as well as the threats they face, and a brief discussion follows in the Educational Hall. Guests are then prepared to visit the beehives wearing the whole-body beekeeper’s suit available in all sizes to ensure safety from any bee sting. When visiting a nearby apiary we monitor the working bees at work, we identify the one and only queen of bees and observe their organization and products insight the beehives. Depending on the season, various practical manipulations of the beekeeper are carried out for the inspection of hives such as the control of the parasitic varroa mite, the collection of honeycombs, the collection of propolis, the feeding, etc. After the inspection of the hives is finished, we return to the honey extraction and bottling laboratory where a guided tour and practical use (where possible) of the machines takes place. Finally, visitors will try all batches of honey produced in the last year as well as other beekeeping or processing products such as natural beeswax ointments, soaps with honey, etc.

In the same Hall, visitors can observe the bees working insight a glass hive. Subsequently, visitors attend and participate in the entire production process of various kinds of natural candles with and/or without the addition of essential oils. Boil pieces of beeswax using Bain marie method, mix other oils of our choice and prepare the molds and wicks that we will need. At the same time, prepare the wax plates to make pillar candles. After the mixture is prepared, pour it into the molds and decorate our candles using various fresh herbs or other objects. Until our candles are solidified, we visit the laboratory for the export of honey and other beekeeping products where a guided tour and practical use (where possible) of the machines takes place. Finally, visitors will try all batches of honey produced in the last year as well as other beekeeping or processing products such as natural beeswax ointments, soaps with honey and beeswax, etc.

5th International Literary festival, to the sea-girt shores of Cyprus, 2021
2021-11-03 - 2021-11-06
5th International Literary Festival, to the sea-girt shores of Cyprus
Wednesday – Saturday, 3 – 6 November 2021, Nicosia, Lemithou, Galata

The 5th international Literary Festival, to the sea-girt shores of Cyprus, will be four days long, from Wednesday to Saturday, with both both days included, 3 – 6 November 2020, and will host 30 writers and poets, from 11 countries, including Cyprus.

It is a well-known fact, that renowned as well as emerging literary voices and their interactive participation give significant value to an international literary festival. Their participation brings together their writing – reading with the audience-listener, in an atmosphere of communication (networking meetings that result in the tightening of relations between authors and the public), understanding (translations of poems and texts) and contemporary presentations (performance, videos).

The author-reader and audience-listener create a new platform-dialogue, on which they converge in search of new ideas and new approaches, that help better understand the contemporary literary trends. The Festival provides the platform for contemporary-modern writing- performing to be made public and reach more audiences, while at the same time never forgetting the classical.

Keeping this in mind and together with one of its key objectives, which is the presentation of specialised events dedicated to specific literary themes (countries or writers / poets), Ideogramma, is dedicating, in its fifth edition of the International Literary Festival, to the sea-girt shores of Cyprus, two events: one to the greatest living Irish poet Michael Longley, and the other to the world-famous German writer Bernhard Schlink (whose novel Der Vorleser, was made into the Oscar winning film, The Reader).

4 days, from Wednesday to Saturday

30 writers and poets; 8 from abroad and 22 from Cyprus

1 theatre director, 2 actors and 1 musician

Cyprus Symphony Orchestra - PREMIERE 1
2021-10-13 20:30 - 2021-10-15 23:59
CYPRUS SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
PREMIERE 1

Αmusical encounter of our honourary conductor Alkis Baltas with both, the CySO and Savvas Lagou, one of its violinists and the featured soloist in Mozart’s Third Violin Concerto. Distinctive for its gracefully ornatesolo writing,especially in the cadenzas, this lightly orchestrated concerto is one of the five that Mozart wrote during his lifetime, all composed in 1775 at the early age of 19.

Our concert opens with yet another classical delight: Joseph Haydn’s exquisitely vivacious and lyrical Overture in D major, written two years later in 1777.
“Triptychon” by Alkis Baltas will be receiving its Cyprus premiere in this programme. Commissioned in 1978 by a German company, it was premiered in Berlin the same year, by an orchestra consisting of members of the Deutsche Oper Berlin, under the direction of the composer. It is distinguished for its use of contrapuntal techniques within a more contemporary style.
Τhe Suite no. 2 is one of the earliest examples of Stravinsky’s emerging neoclassical tendencies and ranks among his lightest and most amusing works.

Joseph Haydn: Overture in D major, Hob.la:7
Wolfgang AmadeusMozart: Violin concerto no. 3 in G major, K. 216
