Since 1983, Foundation Week has been celebrated every year in the second week of May with various events across the country. Within the theme determined by the General Directorate of Foundations, the Marmara Education Foundation (İMEV) aims to reach all segments of society, especially the younger generations, through various activities. In this context, various cultural and artistic activities (such as handicraft courses, exhibitions, cultural and art tours, etc.) are held intermittently throughout the year.
