Naxos Festival: a rich and interesting diversity of events for 2013
This is the 13th consecutive year that Naxos Festival is organized and the selected venue for 2013 is Bazeos Tower.
The festival’s moto for 2013 is :
Νaxos island. The island of tolerance, vigilance and reflection
Our nights have no darkness
Everything is resplendent with light
Titian
The light which glows from art is what inspired the festival organizers this year, whose main aim is to fill our summer nights and days with melodic music, dance moves and a voyage through a world of particular colors.
Bazeos Tower is at 12 km from the island’s main town. Its beautiful location and prominent positioning overlooking the Ayiassos plain, makes it one of the most significant towers of the island. It was constructed in the 16th century and operated as a monastery until the early 19th century, when it was abandoned and was taken over by the Greek State. Later on it was sold to the Bazeos family and remains a private property of the family up to our days.
The first step towards the realization of Naxos Festival was made in the summer of 2001, when the first festival was hosted. Last year, an anniversary of a 10-year action and evolution course was celebrated. Head of the festival is the Cultural Nonprofit Organization "EON" while the festival maintains constant collaborations with various fora, institutions and museums, such as, the Benaki Museum in order to present guests and visitors with a fresh and interesting cultural approach every year and give them the opportunity to acquire a taste of theatrical and musical performances, as well as, exhibitions.
