Artists who displayed their work included: Magdalen Mavroudis, president; Efterpi Iatraki, vice-president; Maria Theofanoudis, secretary; Matina Botoulas; Marianthi Raptis; Irene Tsiaris and Leonidas Gelalis.
The Greek Artists Guild is an organization to unite, help and promote Greek artists in their artistic aspirations in the New York scene. All Greek artists are welcome to join.
“Our goal is to create a Greek museum,” explained President Magdalen Mavroudis. “We want Greek art and culture transmitted to the next generation. We are ready to help with every aspect of a Greek museum in New York. We thank the Federation of Greek Societies and members of the Greek Artists Guild for working hard to prepare this art show.”
