For the implementation of its programs, Action Art works with social, cultural groups, actors in Greece, and abroad, and individuals. It supports initiatives by providing voluntary programs.

 

Action Art as a space for communication, exchanges of experience and information through the encounter of people and the different forms of art and expression has created, in the last 8 years, intercultural educational programs and multilinguistic narrations – performances. The organization builds interactive educational, entertainment and awareness programs based on collectivity and developed for the dissemination of the Oral Intangible Heritage, its merit and preservation. Multilinguistic narrations are related to the narration of fairy tales, myths and legends from natural narrators - immigrants, students, refugees - who are temporarily or permanently in our country. The narrative of stories passed from generation to generation through oral speech is done in their mother tongue, thus transferring the richness of their cultural heritage. These are meetings of cultures through stories, legends, fairy tales, speech and other forms of art for a meaningful communication necessary in our multicultural society.
