ACTIVITIES     The main objective of the Basil and Elise Goulandris Foundation is to support the arts in general, and the visual arts in particular. Apart from the annual exhibitions, the Foundation has established, since 1986, a scheme regarding post-graduate scholarships on subjects related to art and has carried out significant donations, like the assignment of the Archaeological Museum on Andros to the Greek state. Aside from the cultural activities, the Basil and Elise Goulandris Foundation is also active in the field of social welfare. The construction, outfitting and maintenance of the Old People’s Home Non-profit Institution “Estia Athinon” and the renovation of the two pavilions of the Old People’s Home of the Athens Charitable Society are examples of that.
