Giannis Gaitis
About
In Ios, Giannis Gaitis – Gabriella Simosis museum is a museum in Chora, Ios 840 01, Greece, set in the island's main village. It is a museum devoted to the work of Giannis Gaitis and Gabriella Simosis, two artists whose joint legacy gives the place its name.
The museum is known for its collection of paintings and sculptures by the two artists, housed in a building in Chora. Visitors who have been there have given it 4.8 out of 5 from 122 reviews, a strong showing for a small island museum. The museum's website, gaitis-simossi-museum.org/en, carries further information about the collection.
The museum's opening hours are listed as 2017 not operated, which means it has not been open to the public since that year. First-time visitors should therefore plan around the fact that the museum is not currently receiving guests. Chora, also called Ios Town, is the village where the museum stands, and Mylopotas, Manganari, Paleos Mylopotas, Koumbara, Gialos and Agia Theodoti are among the other places on the island.
On Ios, Greek is the main language, written in the Greek alphabet, which also appears on road signs and menus, so a few words of Greek help when asking directions in Chora. The island's menus often feature horiatiki salad, grilled octopus and thyme honey from island hills, and Orthodox Easter is the biggest religious festival, with village panigyria marking saints' days through the summer.
