Umbrellas decorating the municipal market
Director of Excavations Guy Sanders and local ΛΖ ΕΠΚΑ archaeologist Sokrates Koursoumis spoke to an interested audience gathered for the "Imagine the City: Corinth 2013" exhibit. Organized by the volunteer group, Diolki, the event ran from June 13–23 in the municipal market of the city of New Corinth. More than 50 studies of students, public organizations, and individuals contributed ideas for the city and public space via posters, lectures, music, dance, and painting.
Guy presented the history of the School in Ancient Corinth, its reasearch, and its recent accomplishments in heritage management. Likewise, Sokrates discussed recent work by ΛΖ ΕΠΚΑ. Also contributing posters on ASCSA-funded conservation studies were Clari Palyvou's group on Peirene, and Konstantina Siountri's team on the collonade of the South Stoa.
Corinth's poster entry for the exhibit on the subject of the conservation work of the Frankish area can be viewed in PDF and more can be seen on the group's Facebook page.
Ioanna Damanaki, Administrative Assistant to the Director, was essential in coordinating the efforts of the School and its participation in the exhibition.
