For the third year, #GreekDinner Around the World on January 15, 2016 will honor and celebrate the best of Greek culture, heritage, cuisine, arts, and business in all corners of the world. Now, with so many refugees arriving in Greece, who are the families being sheltered in Greece? Starting in Australia, moving to Asia, through Europe, Africa, and then over to North and South America. Greek influence and culture is everywhere. Twenty-four hours of Greek inspiration around the world.
Friends and family will join once again for dinner, the theater, book readings, musical concerts and lectures to honor classical and modern Greece. The tradition is share a story, a photo or video or more through your social media accounts and then be generous and promote others doing the same. Meet new authors, discover new businesses and connect each Greek business with another business in your community.
Imagine the power of your purchases and investments.

The Feast of Artemis by Anne Zouroudi
In this seventh gripping, instalment of The Mysteries of the Greek Detective, the olive harvest is drawing to a close in the town of Dendra, and when Hermes Diaktoros arrives for the celebratory festival he expects an indulgent day of food and wine…but … Hermes follows a bitter trail through the olive groves to reveal a motive for murder, and uncovers a dark deed brought to light by the sin of gluttony.
