The Canakkale Culture Route Festival, organized by Türkiye's Ministry of Culture and Tourism, marked its seventh day with a full lineup of events centered on history, art, and culture.
The "Traditional Canakkale Ceramic Decorations and Postcard Design in Brush Technique Workshop," held at the Anadolu Hamidiye Fort Hangar, brought traditional ceramic art together with a hands-on workshop.
At the same venue, the "Wooden Spoon Making Workshop" introduced participants to wooden spoon making, a craft with deep roots in Turkish handicrafts and culinary culture.
The Canakkale Mehmet Akif Ersoy Provincial Public Library hosted a personal development talk titled "Wise Person." Held with the participation of local author Mustafa Gur, the event explored themes of personal growth and self-awareness through the book "Wise Person."
The short film "Fallen From Olympus" was screened at the Troy Museum. The film, which follows a warrior confronting death during the Trojan War as he speaks with Thanatos, the god of death, about the futility of war, offered a different perspective on the mythological narrative.
