What I can see

In a small park outside the Katrakio Theatre, we see an ensemble of stone and marble contemporary sculptures. The sculpture park was created on the occasion of the 2006 international sculpture symposium “Refugees”, in which artists from Greece and abroad participated. We see works by Andreas Lolis, Maro Bartzili, Hariklia Papagiannopoulou, Dimitris Skalkotos, Michalis Kassis, Tsaousi Besim (Albania), Gagik Altunyan (Armenia), Vladan Martinovic (Serbia), Tanya Preminger (Israel), Stefan Constantinov Tedorov (Bulgaria), Pierre Karan (Lebanon), Enim Petrosian (Armenia), Ahmad Canuan (Palestine) and Gheorghe Postonavu (Moldova). Unfortunately, the sculptures are in poor condition due to heavy tagging.

What I can't see

The area today is officially called the Park of Pontic Hellenism.
