The non-profit company Olipoli (AMKE) was founded in January 2021 in Thessaloniki, responding to the need for a community of musical expression and research that would serve as a key reference point within the city’s cultural, educational, and research ecosystem.

Its activities focus on contemporary expressions of musical traditions from Greece, the Balkans, and the Mediterranean. Olipoli organizes group workshops for children and adults, seminars, lectures, educational programs, open rehearsals, concerts, and festivals. It also undertakes the production of musical and artistic projects, building a network of musicians, artists, academics, students, institutions, and anyone interested in engaging with the art of music.

With core objectives being the cultivation of musical performance and listening, alongside the production of artistic, educational, and research work, Olipoli fosters and strengthens collaboration and coexistence among diverse communities and institutions of Thessaloniki and beyond, creating hubs of expression and exchange across Greece.

Within just a few years of activity, it has established collaborations with major institutions and organizations and has presented a rich artistic portfolio. Indicative projects include: Bridges Online and Bridges On-site (seminars, lectures), Anopolis World Music Festival (2021–2025) and the pre-festival two-day event in collaboration with the University of Macedonia, Anopolis World Music Festival Meets tMET Artists (2024, 2025), the Nefes Project and Terpsis Orchestra (music ensembles), North Evia Festival (2022, 2024), Home Concerts (2023, 2024), Art Studio Concerts (2023–2024), concerts in Greece and abroad, as well as artistic performances such as From Asia Minor to Northern Evia and How Many People Fit on My Balcony (as part of the program All of Greece, One Culture ), and Unruly World—a motet for variations of voices, presented within the city’s Open Theatre Stage, among others.
