For the past twenty two years, two Saturday evenings each August, the editor of the “Sifnos” paper organizes, at their office yard in Sifnos (on the path leading from Apollonia to Pano Petali, next to the Church of the Taxiarch) Literary Saturday Evenings, under the title “Gryparia”, in honour of the Sifnian poet Ioannis Gryparis. These evenings include readings and recitations of literary texts and poems by selected spiritual people and sifnian treats by the host.
