CLASS: CELEBRATING 200 YEARS – MODERN GREEK HISTORY

Search for:
The heroes of Greece’s War of Independence was the theme of the latest exhibition by artist Angela Kiki Konstantinopoulou, which opened on Saturday 27 February at the Campbelltown Arts Centre.
An initiative of the 1821 Organising Committee of Macarthur Greeks, the “Heroes of 1821″ art exhibition by Konstantinopoulou was attended by Camden Council Mayor Tereza Fedeli, Woolloodele Council Mayor Robert Khan and Campbelltown Council Mayor George Brticevic, among others.
Inspired by the Greek War of independence, the exhibition is one of many cultural initiatives taking place around the world, culminating in the celebration of the 200th anniversary of the Greek Revolution which brought freedom to the people of Greece from the 400-year Ottoman occupation, and was the beginning of the modern Greek State.
