Lavris Productions & IN THE KNOW S.M.P.C. invite you on a mesmerising journey. Be guided around by our ITK team of experts and familiarise yourself with a passionate intervention stretching the boundaries of common curatorial practice as it stimulates all senses and opens the mind.

Experience Vincent van Gogh’s unique cosmos of paintings, writings and manuscripts, touch the stars, feel the aura of the windy scenery, step into the extraordinary artistic realm, full of mystery and magic, and get inspired by countless interpretations of this transcendent experience.

Chasing waves in the centre of Athens. Modern structures showing the future of architecture in Greece. Our suggested walking routes to a number of typical and not-so-typical city areas and neighbourhoods come with the promise of showcasing all that is noteworthy.

Experience True North. Goulandris Natural History Museum is an unmissable addition to your escape in the northern suburbs of Athens, especially worth visiting if you’re travelling with children. The museum cafe on a sunny day is a true oasis, a unique place to have lunch or grab a revitalising cuppa. Design your very own bespoke experience to create a memorable journey.

We love that sweet, fresh, earthy smell of summer rain!

Late-August / early-September is considered by many as the perfect time for last-minute escapes around the Greek islands. The sun shines bright, the beach is less crowded and the peacefulness and harmony of the landscape create the perfect scenario for curing our end-of-summer blues.

Today's celebrations create a unique spiritual realm. The 15th of August is a day that everyone anticipates in Greece. Enjoy the festivities, feed your soul with rhythm and passion and lose yourself in the music, the moment and the gastronomic treasures of a blessed land.

Away from the strictly choreographed routine, our eyes hazy with sleep after the siesta try to identify new colours and shapes formed by the island's bright sun. Lines and wrinkles across our faces remind us of the time, when we were called in from our play and required to take afternoon naps to secure a bowl full of vanilla ice cream with homemade sour cherry syrup.

Let us dream beyond infinity. The fusion of architectural styles has never being described more accurately than through the encounter between unique modern structures and the natural landscape of the Greek islands.

The breeze, the afternoon sun, the aromas of jasmine-scented gardens and courtyards, feel the air with the nostalgic memory of a french romance showed on an open-air cinema, somewhere around Athens.

Days may seem quieter during summer, but the vibrant urban life heats up in Athens. Pick your own pace and explore our city’s summer colours.

Artistic energy, creativity and fresh ideas have always managed to survive, thrive and get heard in ; this is why, especially over our long summers, local and foreign artists join forces to carry appreciative audiences away in imagery, motion, and sound under the star-studded sky.
