The main features of the program were the participation of Greek and foreign artists from various European countries, the creation of drafts on the site and their “approval” by the site, operator or owner. The artists came into contact with the history of the city and after talking with the citizens and the workers proceeded to the realization of their works. The frescoes were open to the public who could talk to the artists.

The programme was launched with a visual exhibition of poster works by the artists at the “Giorgio De Chirico” Art Center and closed in the same space with projections of the projects being implemented.
