Participatory workshop "A Day at Nicosia Airport"

As part of Cyprus Insula exhibition series of public events, the Bank of Cyprus Cultural Foundation, announces the participatory workshop “A Day at Nicosia Airport" which will take place on Saturday 30 November.

An immersive digital reconstruction of Nicosia International Airport is presented at the Cyprus Insula exhibition, showcasing the value of the inaccessible site to the modernization of the newly established Republic of Cyprus at the time as well as the architectural legacy of this innovative built infrastructure that was abandoned.

Step into a virtual recreation of the airport, explore rare archival material and share with us stories of awe about the airport and your memories of it. Help us document the airport's role in shaping Cypriot modernity. Your contribution will help us preserve the airport's place in Cyprus' collective memory!"

The workshop will be held in Greek and English language

Facilitators: Giorgos Artopoulos and Colter E Wehmeier
