Mayor's greetings for the Carnival in Rethymnon 2018
LFor over a century, the Carnival in Rethymnon, with all its transformations and mutations in the passing of time, has originally been addressed to the bright side Man. With creative energy and volunteer work it has moved the Carnival for such a long time. And because the good has many expressions and outings, it suffices to receive the appropriate stimuli to create what we experience in Rethymnon every year, life outbursts with our fellow human beings who believed in the power of the positive dimension of ourselves.
This year, the call is even clearer and more imperative. The Carnival in Rethymnon embodies the occasion, the potential, the prospect, the will to become our best self. This call is spreading everywhere: to all those who feel that they are vital members of an indivisible whole, composed of soul and matter, the people and the monuments of the city, its modern face and its cultural past, and to all those who wish to experience this unprecedented experience of participation, to a healthy and bright expression of life.
The preservation of our cultural heritage is being promoted by the Carnival in Rethymnon, as incentive to be compatible with the actions of the European Union which has designated 2018 as "European Year of Cultural Heritage".
The streets of our heart and city are open and hospitable. We invite you to walk with them by your best to share a spontaneous, pandemic Culture celebration with you.
Giorgis Ch. Marinakis
Mayor of Rethymno |
