Contemporary Istanbul and Aralık Foundation, with the endorsement of Turkey’s Ministry of National Education, have collaborated in an arts initiative to support a school project for Kilis’ and Syrian children in Turkey. Organized to raise funds for the project, an extensive exhibition will host 59 leading contemporary artists. It takes place from 12–13 May at the Sofa Hotel in Istanbul. All funds from sales of the exhibited works will go towards the financial support of the project.

Currently, the 24,000 Syrian refugees who reside in Kilis were forced to leave their countries due to civil war and most of them are under 18. There are existing projects in the region that provide for their physical and social needs, but limited physical space and opportunities for school buildings in the area pose a considerable hindrance to the children’s ability to obtain an extensive and quality education. The school planned to be built in the region will have 18 classes and is scheduled to be completed in time for the start of the 2016–2017 semester. The main idea behind the development is to inspire a socially responsible project guided by art and its unifying power.
