Athens is the city that will host the next edition of the Biennial of Young Artists of European and Mediterranean countries, in the beautiful area of the Environmental Awareness Park Antonis Tritsis.

Here the elderly talk friendly with the young people, in a perpetual exchange between different civilizations and cultures.
