Anadolu Sigorta’s Inspiring Initiative
Anadolu Sigorta’s social responsibility project, ‘One Master Thousand Masters’, was launched in 2010 with the vision of preserving endangered professions and safeguarding local heritage for future generations. This initiative has evolved to intertwine seamlessly with art, inspiring a multitude of related projects. Following the 2010 Kazaziye workshop in Trabzon, organized under the One Master Thousand Masters program, the tradition of International Art Days continues to flourish, bringing art enthusiasts together under Anadolu Sigorta’s sponsorship for the past three years.
Celebrating Art and Heritage in Trabzon
In its 15th iteration, the Trabzon International Art Days, held from June 12-15, 2025, welcomed a diverse array of artists, art collectives, and masters from all over Turkey and neighboring regions. This vibrant event, showcasing exhibitions, concerts, talks, and workshops, spanned various disciplines including performing arts, visual arts, literary arts, and traditional crafts. Such events play a crucial role in preserving our cultural heritage by leveraging the power of art.
Recognition and Future Initiatives
During the event, a plaque was presented to Cem Kaynak, the Black Sea Regional Manager of Anadolu Sigorta, in recognition of the company’s unwavering support. Berna Semiz Ergüntan, Corporate Communications and Sustainability Coordinator at Anadolu Sigorta, remarked, “We are immensely proud to have supported this meaningful event as the main sponsor over the past three years.
