Outside, meanwhile, in the shadow of the great pyramid illuminated by the sun, the readings of poems, stories, extemporaneous thoughts alternate. All this while those who want to greet the sun of a new summer, do it by practicing yoga and meditation. Meanwhile, the students of the schools perform, the artists read monologues against the war, while the Peace flag waves along the pyramid, alongside a banner that reproduces Gaza’s horror. On a long afternoon during which more than one hundred artists perform.
