Acropolis Museum Participates in 'Green Cultural Routes' Initiative

The Acropolis Museum in Athens will participate in the nationwide “Green Cultural Routes” initiative, which is organized by the Greek Culture Ministry, on Sunday, May 26.

As part of this initiative, the museum will present a thematic exhibition titled “Exploring Nature’s Elements at the Acropolis Museum.” This exhibition will feature special objects that illustrate how the four elements of nature—fire, earth, air, and water—are depicted in art.

“Beliefs, myths, and philosophical concerns, as well as simple daily needs, find expression in the shapes and images of elaborate lamps, mythical demons, and ritual vessels,” the museum’s management announced.

To explain these artifacts, the museum’s archaeologists will share stories that highlight the interaction between humanity and nature, focusing on the elements of fire, earth, air, and water.

This thematic presentation is free of charge, but visitors must obtain a free admission ticket from the museum ticket desk. Each session is limited to 30 participants. To join, visitors must register online at events.theacropolismuseum.gr.

The presentations will be available in English at 10 am and in Greek at 1 pm, with each session lasting 90 minutes.
