Last week, tens of thousands of guests were in our city for the 749th Celebration of the Death Anniversary of Hz. Mevlana. Today, our Santoor Artist Mr. Sedat Anar, whom we hosted last year, is with us. Therefore, our culture and art activities will continue in our city and in Karatay. Hoping to meet at another event, I would like to thank my artist brothers and sisters and all of you for your participation.”
