Summer Street art Festival in Samos GR

The Greek island Samos, on Karlovasi village, presented for the first time a big project that aims to create a core for street art in Europe. On the 24th and 25th of June, Artist Yiakou with the mayor and the community institution, established the first Festival of Karlovasi. The goal was not only to make Karlovasi village a better and colored place, but also to establish a new headquarter.
