1st Alasarnites Gathering

We were truly delighted to attend the wonderful welcoming event for cultural associations held in Nisyros!

It was a great honor to host groups mainly from the island of Kos, in an evening filled with tradition, dance, and flavors of Nisyros — including local dances, homemade delicacies (moschopoulia, traditional halva, krasotyri cheese, soumada, and more), smiles, and a spirit of cultural unity.

At the welcoming ceremony at the port, present were:

Mr. Giorgos Koukourakis, President of the “Diavatis” Cultural Association
Ms. Angeliki Michailou, Vice President
Mr. Christofis Koronaios, Mayor of Nisyros
Ms. Dimitra Kafetzidaki, Deputy Mayor for Tourism

The following associations attended the event:

Lyceum of Greek Women – Kardamaina
Cretan Association of Kos “Talos”
Cultural Association of Kefalos “Agios Nikolaos”
Cultural Association of Pyli, Kos “Apellis”
Lyceum of Greek Women – Kos
Dance Workshop of Nea Ionia
Cultural Association of Kardamaina “Argos”

We warmly thank everyone who cooked, contributed, and took part in the event — especially dance teacher Mr. Giannis Mastoros for his guidance, and Ms. Irini Sakkali for her generous donation of soumada.
