Public art initiatives in Tarsus

Overview

The Mersin Metropolitan Municipality has implemented the ‘Art Everywhere / Every Space a Gallery’ project in Tarsus. Managed by the Tarsus Council of Those Who Add Value (TADEKA), the initiative seeks to integrate art into the public sphere by utilizing local shop windows and walls as open-air exhibition spaces.

Under this project, business owners turn their storefronts into galleries, allowing citizens to encounter artworks during daily activities. The initiative, which began in 2025, provides designated areas for artists who lack access to private venues. Participants can apply for involvement through the Tarsus Festival website.
