In the last 12 years NOISIS has designed and produced over 15 small and medium-sized periodical exhibitions. Themes range from interactive exhibits, astrophotography to computer history and the arts

Its main action concerns the design and implementation of educational programs. Examples are “Summer Escape”, “Renewable Energy Sources”, “Robotics Laboratories”, “Aeromodeling” etc. The most typical example is the presentation of Science Shows, short (45 ‘) presentations of scientific experiments which explain with simple and comprehensible science subjects.

In addition to the educational programs, NOISIS organizes meetings and workshops with prominent members of the scientific community, in collaboration with other cultural / research bodies such as the British Council, the French Institute, CERTH, etc.
