KYKLOS PAROS is an open circle of friends who aim to enrich and enhance the cultural, intellectual, and civic life of its members and friends, and of all who live and visit Paros, through a collaborative and participatory program of musical events, lectures, seminars, exhibitions, discussions, theatrical productions and performances.

Like the society of Paros in which we live, the members of Kyklos come from many diverse backgrounds.  The Association draws on the varied talents, experiences and competences of its members and of the wider society of Paros to organize and present programs that aim to enrich the life and experience of its members and of Paros society at large.

The programs and activities of KYKLOS are open to all.  We welcome your ideas and participation in our programs and we encourage all who share our aims to become members.  We welcome exchanges of all sorts and collaboration with other civic and cultural associations on Paros and elsewhere.
