Artists from various cities in Ukraine visited Alanya for a while, facilitated by the Culture and Promotion Counselor of the Kyiv Embassy of the Republic of Turkey. During their stay, they observed the natural beauty and social life of Alanya, which they then expressed through their artwork. The first exhibition of these artists took place at Kızılkule on April 24, 2024. Their second exhibition reopened in a historical cistern, featuring new works. This exhibition will be open to the public free of charge until November 25.
