Educational Activities within the Framework of the New Tloupas PATH Initiative

The Region of Thessaly, in collaboration with the Primary and Secondary Education Directorates of Larissa, is organizing a series of educational activities aimed at schools of the Larissa Regional Unit as well as educators.

These educational activities take place within the framework of the new Tloupas PATH initiative, an international photography competition held in memory of the renowned photographer Takis Tloupas.

The goal of Tloupas PATH is to establish a recognized cultural institution with not only national but also international appeal—honoring and preserving the legacy of one of Greece’s classic photographers. It seeks to explore and expand, through contemporary approaches, the conceptual framework of the “Relationship between Humans and the Environment” in which they live.

The new institution Tloupas PATH—an acronym for Tloupas Photography Award of Thessaly’s Heritage—is implemented simultaneously along several axes: competitive, educational, organizational, and communicational. It centers around two annual photography competitions with corresponding awards:
  • The TLOUPAS PATH INTERNATIONAL AWARD, for accomplished photographers from Greece and around the world, and
  • The TLOUPAS PATH UNDER 30 AWARD, for emerging artists in Greece.
For 2025, the Thematic Cycle is titled “Turning Point”, a call for visual storytelling that captures the momentum, rupture, or quiet aftermath of profound change.
