On Wednesday, May 9, 2018, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation received the Gennadius Prize from the American School of Classical Studies for its outstanding contributions to the advancement of knowledge of post-antique Greece.
The award ceremony took place in New York, at the American School of Classical Studies at Athens’s annual gala dinner.
“It is an honor to recognize the Stavros Niarchos Foundation and to celebrate, not only their excellence in civic engagement and responsible citizenship, but their commitment in supporting and driving the study and un¬derstanding of post antique Hellenism,” declares Andreas Zombanakis, Chairman of the Library’s Overseers. “We hope that by showcasing their exceptional leadership and vision, we can help inspire the next generation of post antique Greek scholars and Philhellenes.”
