Paintings by Turkish Cypriot painters Nilgun Guney, Asik Mene, Alper Susuzlu and Sumer Erek and the cartoons from the Northern Cyprus Caricaturists Association will be on display for a week.

A comedy entitled "Havasu Garayanni" will be staged by the Apler Susuzlu Theater Co. on Friday.

After the Umut Albayrak Orchestra's concert, with a repertoire consisting of Turkish and Greek songs, at the St. Monica Hall on Saturday, the Lefkosa Youth Center Folk Dance group will perform on Sunday. During the event, as well as music and dance, traditional crafts and a selection of Northern Cyprus cuisine will be on offer to guests.
