In Mar Mikhael

MEDNETA – ‘In Mar Mikhael’

Mar Mikhael is a neighbourhood that is changing. While its inhabitants continue to enjoy its traditional characteristics, young artists, craftsmen and designers have located their trades in former garages. Though this has contributed to Mar Mikhael’s appeal, it has also attracted real estate development and nightlife, putting Mar Mikhael’s atmosphere under threat.

From 16 to 24 January, GAIA-Heritage is hosting a weeklong event of activities in Mar Mikhael within the EU-funded project MEDNETA that aims at reinforcing creativity (Arts, Crafts and Design) and enhancing their role in the regeneration of neighbourhoods. These activities include an exhibition on the Creative Process, another on local architecture projects (designed by students), public tours of the neighbourhood followed by urban talks on the district’s major issues, and workshops for ACDs and curious minds!
