VOREIA VOTTIKI - NOTIA MYGDONIA

Dimitris Liantinis, the man who mocked Charon, told him absolutely, save the brakes, "I will find you whenever I want, and not whenever you want", he left us the following prophetic text which I am quoting as a photocopy from the face book, as uploaded by his "team" editing the link in photocopy.
Prophetic, which tends to be verified in all respects!

The first (demographic), I also thought about it from a much younger age!
The second (ecological) has come to us rapidly in recent years.
The third (nuclear), knocks on our door directly and persistently.
And the fourth, we've been living it for several 10 years now, but we're ostriching it and we don't want to admit it.

I am very afraid that in a very short period of time, none of us will want to live on an Earth, on a Planet, with all this hanging over his "head"!

A historical retrospective exhibition by O.M.M.Th

Dedicated to 100 years since the Asia Minor Catastrophe and the impact of refugees on the development of Thessaloniki is the historical retrospective exhibition entitled: "From Asia Minor to Thessaloniki. The exhibition opens on Wednesday 05 October 2022, at 20.00, in the Foyer of the M2 building. It will run until November 15, 2022 and entry will be free to the public. The aim of the exhibition is to highlight the general context of the history of the Asia Minor refugees who settled in Thessaloniki and the process of their socio-economic integration into the life of the city in the interwar period, through maps, drawings, diagrams, and archival material such as photographs, documents, newspaper clippings, etc. The places of origin, the dimensions and the socio-spatial effects of the state rehabilitation policy at the local level will also be highlighted, as well as the business activity they developed. Then, focusing on a smaller scale, the exhibition will attempt to reconstruct the stories of a refugee neighborhood and a number of refugee houses, through drawings and photographs, but also archival material about the rehabilitation process of the refugee families who inhabited them. The report is based on archival and bibliographic research and is divided into three sections. The first concerns the refugees' places of origin, their history and culture. The second focuses on the temporary settlement chronicling the arrival of the refugees in Thessaloniki after the fire of 1917 and the third chronicles their permanent settlement which led to the regeneration of the city. The entire project is implemented by a group of teachers and students of the Department of Architecture of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki with the assistance of the Thessaloniki History Center and with the undivided support of O.M.M.Th.
