Festival Miden is founded, organised and curated by a team of contemporary Greek artists, who are all linked with the city of Kalamata in the Peloponnese since childhood. It is an independent initiative, realised by Sea Level (Urban, Non-profit Organisation) and supported by Kalamata’s Historic Centre Organization, the Messinia Chamber of Commerce and the Municipality of Kalamata.
