In the year 507 B.C., the Athenian leader Cleisthenes introduced a system of political reforms that he called demokratia, or “rule by the people” (from demos, “the people,” and kratos, or “power”). It was the first known democracy in the world.

Today, democracy means many things to many different people.
The Hellenic Museum of Michigan is interested in furthering this conversation through creative expression.
