Once known for smog, traffic and tacky architecture, Athens is a city reformed thanks to fortunes brought by the 2004 Summer Olympics. Spotless parks and streets, an ultra-modern subway, new freeways, an accessible airport and all signs in perfect English make the city easily negotiable. Meriting more than a stopover en route to the islands, sophisticated Athens sites include many pillars of Western history, from the Acropolis to the Temple of Olympian Zeus, as well as treasures in the National Archaeological Museum.

ART 10 GALLERY is an art place located in the Acropolis area. Since 2008, it works with both new and established visual artists, painters, sculptors, ceramists and promotes their work through solo and group exhibitions as well as permanent display in its premises. Our exclusive collection of hand made decorative and utilitarian objects, which are manufactured or selected by ART 10 GALLERY form a unique collection of original arts and crafts. The activities of the gallery include periodic workshops on painting and ceramic art, for children and adults, as well as performances, storytelling, book reviews and whatever can inspire the artistic creation. ART 10 GALLERY is open and accessible to every artist, without discrimination, on the sole basis of the love for art and the talent, as sources of inspiration and creativity.
In Athens 10 Gallery I found a variety of art objects from original paintings by various artists, among them the very talented Vangelis Agnantopoulos who happens to be the owner of the place. I also liked the unique pieces of ceramics, also by important Greek artists and the original jewels at very affordable prices. Check also the hand painted straw hats! I enjoyed the coolness, the calmness of this place and the very zen approach of the people who run it. I strongly recommend it. I will definitely return to Art 10 Gallery.
