Exploring the rich tapestry of women’s history in the Cyclades, the archaeological exhibition “Kykladitisses: Untold Stories of Women in the Cyclades” will open in December at the Museum of Cycladic Art – Stathatos Mansion. Featuring approximately 150 artifacts from early prehistory to the 17th century, many of which have never been publicly displayed, the exhibition highlights the evolving roles of women – from deities to mothers, emphasizing their significant contributions to religious and community life. Tickets cost 16 euros from cycladic.gr. After its debut in Athens, the exhibition will travel to the Archaeological Museum of Thera in Santorini in June 2025.
