Hellenic-American Union

"The Hour of Greece," an exhibition which opens at the Hellenic-American Union on Thursday, celebrates a private collection that was inspired by events in the collector's private life and a major chapter of world history.

Members of the anarchist group Rouvikonas (Greek for Rubicon) on Thursday stormed the offices of the Hellenic-American Union in Kolonaki in central Athens, scattering fliers with the message "Freedom to Palestine."

The increasingly-active group carried out a similar raid at the premises of the American-Hellenic Chamber of Commerce on Mesogeion Avenue.

No arrests were reported.
