Karnavali 2017: Kalymnos Style

What a party! Huge thanks to everyone who joined the BLE at Dormition of the Virgin Mary Greek Orthodox Church in Somerville for Karnavali on Saturday – especially our sponsors and benefactors, our musicians and dancers, and our members and volunteers. Featuring traditional dances from the island of Kalymnos and music by Revma and special guests Michalis Kappas and Panayotis League, the Boston Lykeion Ellinidon planned another entertaining night for guests, building on the success of previous Karnavali events to bring Greek carnival flavor to Boston.

Local businesses Ball Square Fine Wines, Dawn Georgiadis/Greek Music Live Boston, The Feisty Greek, New City Microcreamery, and Rail Trail Flatbread Co  donated exciting raffle prizes, and ISOS Realty and Newton Corner House of Pizza generously supported the event.

We’d also like to acknowledge, with thanks, the efforts and contributions of Claire Collins, Garrett Fugate, Koula Kolettis Kariotis, Eirini Kolettis Klimis (Lykeion ton Ellinidon, Kalymnos), Anna Mavrou (Lykeion ton Ellinidon, Kalamata and Kalymnos), Elizabeth Menges, and John Peppes (Kyklos Hellenic Society, Detroit, MI.)
