HAKKIMIZDA / ABOUT US
Kuruçeşme Projekt bir hane, bir uğraşı.
Lefkoşa surlar içinde Yenicami mahallesinin antik sokağında temel bulmuş bir bina.
Kıbrıslıya eğitim, sanat ve kültür diyaloğu sunan bir girişim. Birliktelik arayışı olanlara, İletişim ihtiyacı duyanlara ışık olacak, anlaşmazlıklara, yangına yenilmeyen İngiliz Koloni mimarisi bir eser.
Odalarını göçmen ve mültecilere açan, dost, akraba, yeğen kardeş ve torunları barındıran, dört nesil aileye yuva olan bir ev.
Mekan arayan herkese bir mekan.
Kuruçeşme Projekt, bize güvenen ve bu olanağı sağlayan Halil İbrahim Ozankaya’ya bir ithaftır.
The Kuruçeşme Projekt is the house and it is the endeavor.
It is the physical structure rooted in the ancient streets of the Yeni Camii neighborhood within the walls of Nicosia.
It is the attempt to continue a dialogue of art and of education and of culture between the varying and varied people of Cyprus.
It is the British Colonial architecture that survived conflict and fire to remain a haven for those in need of communion and a light for those in need of connectedness.
It is the spirit of outreach and kinship that adapted and expanded the rooms and the walls of this four generation family residence to provide shelter and sanctuary to the aunts and cousins the brothers and grandchildren the immigrants and refugees who have passed across its floors.
It is a place for everyone who is searching for a place.
The Kuruçeşme Projekt is a dedication to Halil Ibrahim Ozankaya who alone saw the potential in us and in this house in this community and in this country.
