Lucky New Year coin

It’s a tradition: Every year the Association of the Friends of the Athens Concert Hall and Zoumboulakis Galleries produce a lucky New Year coin designed by a great artist which can be worn as a medallion. This year the coin bears the signature of the late Spyros Vassileiou, whose wife and daughters offered the design. It depicts an Annunciation scene from a 1970s watercolor. The money raised by the coins will fund the Camerata’s concerts in 20 Athens municipalities. ATMs in Metro stations. The National Bank of Greece is opening nine ATMs in Athens Metro stations at 10 p.m. today. These are located at Omonia, Syntagma (two in each), Megaron Mousikis, Sepolia, Panepistimio and Ambelokipi. A further 13 ATMs are planned for installation in the remaining stations.
