This year's motto for the the festival is "Myths and Rituals," and it will feature pieces from the Topkapı Palace Museum, Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum, Istanbul Archeology Museum, Istanbul Carpet Museum, Sadberk Hanım Museum, Pera Museum and Istanbul Sea Museum in addition to the Rezan Has Museum.


The Urartu Jewelry Collection will be displayed at Kadir Has University Rezan Has Museum until July 31, 2015. The display is composed of 1,100 pieces including pins from to eighthand seventh centuries B.C, rings, earrings, bracelets, fibulas, belts and belt pieces, offering plates, armlets, neck rests, necklaces, hair pins and chest plates. The two belts that will be displayed as a part of the Europalia International Arts Festival feature religious descriptions on them.
