Solidarity Concert / Mert Pekduraner

In order to contribute to the revival of the culture and arts sector, which has been somewhat suspended due to the recent earthquakes in our country, we are organising a donation concert at The Circle Space with the support of the 6 Şubatlar creative initiative.

We would like to transfer the revenues to Hatay Academy Orchestra as a donation, taking into consideration the musicians affected by the earthquake.

Musician and composer Mert Pekduraner will be with us on Tuesday 28 March with his solo performance. We are waiting for everyone who wants to support. We look forward to coming together with you for a common purpose in the atmosphere of The Circle Space.
