Threat to the Cypriot Engravers Workshop in Aglantzia

November 12, 2025

The workshop of the Cypriot Engravers Association in Aglantzia faces eviction due to the decision of the Nicosia Municipality to terminate the lease agreement for the premises. The Cypriot Engravers see this decision as detrimental to culture and threatening their association's existence. The workshop has been operating since 1996 and has hosted numerous artistic activities. Being forced out of the space would disrupt their creative continuity. It's also important to note that the property has legal complications and Altamira cannot enter into a new contract with the association.
