The stories paintings paint

We all know and use the saying a picture is worth a thousand words but, as the AG Leventis Gallery celebrates its first year anniversary, it is letting pictures tell stories with words during its storytelling events.

The gallery is inviting children from ten to 15-years-old to listen to how a number of paintings in its collections can come into motion through dramatisation, interaction and the use of musical instruments.

Greek storyteller Sasa Vouglari will recite two of her unique stories which were created especially for the gallery and lead the children into the wonderful world of art.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
