Georgian dance group returns to campus
The Merani Artistic Ensemble of the University of Tbilisi performed Georgian national dances in the Pierce College Theater on Friday, September 21.
The Merani Artistic Ensemble is one of the best dance groups Georgia has to offer. They have performed in Greece, both in Athens and Thessaloniki, as well as other countries in the Balkans and the Middle-East. The Merani Ensemble does not charge for its performances and they also take part in fundraising events.
The Merani Ensemble performed this year in order to raise money for the victims of this year’s deadly forest fires.
The show left spectators awed at the sight of the youngsters’ incredible strength and finesse. The Merani Artistic Ensemble, who danced magnificently for hours, was showered with applause from the crowd.
The Ensemble has performed twice over the past two years at the American College of Greece. This show has turned in to an annual event because of its popularity with the community at large as well as the students of the American College of Greece.
The Cultural Affairs office has successfully kicked off this year’s Cultural Program and we are all looking forward to the events to follow.
