NEON’s exhibition space of togetherness is accompanied by a parallel multifaceted public programme, an open, live workshop, open to the public at the Drama School of the National Theatre | School of Athens – Irini Papa.

This week’s programme is curated by the team EIGHT / ΤΟ ΟΧΤΩ: Gigi Argyropoulou, Vassilis Noulas, Kostas Tzimoulis. They present a public programme entitled Tonight we improvise on 19 and 21 September 2024, attempting to highlight the cruciality of collective processes, public dialogue and, especially, improvisation as a means of social transformations and fermentations, collective and personal awareness on key issues of our time. The actions will be developed in the light of ecological, feminist and LGBTQ+ perspectives.

In addition, NEON opens with extended opening hours at NEON Late Nights on 20 and 21 September 2024 and welcomes the exhibition public until 20:45.
