Inspired by the Museum of the History of Cypriot Coinage collection of the Bank of Cyprus Cultural Foundation (BoCCF, artist Christos Avraam and contemporary jewelry designer Ero Kaskani are opening this year’s “Moments at the Museum ’26” events with the “Ancient Coins as Contemporary Jewellery” workshop for adults, on Sunday, October 11, at 11am.

Beginning with a brief presentation exploring the form of ancient coins (as historical artefacts), participants will draw ideas from the depictions and history of the coins, which serve as a source of inspiration for contemporary creation through observation, research, and artistic expression.

Participants will create a replica of an ancient coin and transform it into a piece of jewellery, focusing on its form, texture, and aesthetics, while developing abstract thinking.
