Aksa Fotofest
At Aksa Energy, we are commited to preservation of local cultures in the regions where we operate. Aksa Energy Kalecik Power Plant holds a photography contest named Aksa Fotofest regularly in order to contribute to the world of culture and art in Northern Cyprus as well as to support the photograph artistry. Thanks to the competition organized with a different theme every year, amateur artists from Northern Cyprus have the opportunity to represent the local culture in different environments with their works. The traditional Aksa Fotofest photo competition aims to boost development of photograhy as a major art form in Northern Cyprus. Aksa Fotofest, which we initiated as a local initiative to motivate the photography artists in TRNC, we carried it to the international arena with a wider audience in 2019
