The 10th International Cappadocia Arts Camp, organized by Karlık Evi, will start on June 20 in the Uçhisar province of Cappadocia.

Abdullah Şen, the manager of Karlık Evi, said Cappadocia was one of the few open-air museums in the world with its many natural, historical and cultural attractions. They aim to increase the number of arts and culture activities held in the city and benefit the promotion of the city worldwide. Germany, Australia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bulgaria, France, Canada, Crimean, Turkish Cyprus, Macedonia, Romania, Russia, Ukraine and Greece are the countries attending the camp this year with 24 artists in total.

The painters attending the camp will have a walk through the wonders of Cappadocia and then express this energy in the garden of Karlık Evi in their artwork. The artwork they have created will be exhibited on June 28 for art lovers.
