Dwejra Tower in Gozo is set to host a unique exhibition exploring the visual legacy of one of the Maltese islands' most famous landmarks - the Azure Window.

The nearby 17th century coastal watchtower, which was restored and is now managed by Din L-Art Ħelwa, Malta's National Trust, will host a unique exhibition in partnership with a new and exciting arts project entitled Azure Watch.

The cultural organisation Spazju Kreattivita, Valletta, together with artist Giuseppe Fanizza are inviting all citizens, artists and activists of Gozo and Malta to engage with the Azure Watch project by sharing their photos, memories and experiences of visiting the nearby Azure Window, as well as experiencing, during a visit, a range of audio recordings, films, photographs and exhibits.

The exhibition was yesterday, 30 September, at Dwejra Tower and will be open on weekdays from 9am to 3pm and weekends from 10.30am to 3pm. Last day will be Sunday, 29 October.

Donations will be gratefully accepted and all proceeds go towards the upkeep of this historic tower.

Completed in 1652, Dwejra Tower commands marvellous views over the coast overlooking Dwejra Bay and Fungus Rock. It remains a popular attraction with tourists and locals visiting the area throughout the year.

The Azure Window limestone arch was one of Gozo's most famous landmarks. It dramatically collapsed into the sea after a heavy storm early this year, attracting intense media coverage from across the world.
