We are delighted to be among several partners in the opening ceremony of the Safe Spaces initiative with the Czech Center. The Cantos Arts Foundation aims to support artists from various creative fields and create a bridge between local artists and international institutions. Cantos recently participated in the 20th Mediterranean Biennale for Young Artists with the Bjcem Foundation, and Cantos founder Joseph Alfred will present a violin workshop at the International Viola Congress in Paris.

At Cantos, we strive to focus all our efforts on building a truly safe space for every artist. Our vision is to create a safe and sustainable environment that embraces artists' experiences, ideas, and dreams. Believing that we engage with the world through free self-expression, we offer opportunities for expression through several workshops in visual arts, photography, and creative writing. More workshops will be announced soon.

On November 1, 2025, Dr. Christina Ebersohl-Van Scyoc, co-founder of CANTOS for Arts | كانتوس للفنون, proudly represented the United States as the only American violist in an orchestra of musicians from 79 countries, performing before world leaders at the opening ceremony of the Grand Egyptian Museum in Cairo.

Under the unwavering direction of Maestro Nayer Nagui, the international ensemble performed a powerful work by Egyptian composer Hisham Nazih, whose music captured the grandeur and spirit of the occasion.
