Cycling the Middle East And North Africa: Photo Exhibit in Yerevan

Tom Allen, a British cyclist now living Yerevan, will be showcasing about 40 photographs from a series called “Cycling the Middle East and North Africa” at the Armenian Center for Contemporary Experimental Art (ACCEA, or NPAK in Armenian) in Yerevan.

This, his first ever solo exhibit, features photos from his 10,000 km bicycle journey through 11 countries in 2009. According to a press release issued by Allen himself, he hopes to raise money for Armenian and international charities through the sale of these works.

The exhibit officially opens at 5 pm on Friday, March 12, and runs for three weeks.
