As part of the 2nd Grape Molasses Festival organized by the Mazıdağı Municipality in Mardin's Mazıdağı district, a march was held accompanied by erbanes. Following the march, the Medya Culture and Art Center was inaugurated with the participation of political party and civil society organization representatives, as well as regional municipal co-mayors. Speaking at the opening, Şemrex Co-Mayor Kudret Uçuk expressed their excitement in opening a new culture and art center to replace those closed down by trustees in 2016. DEM Party Mardin Deputy George Aslan pointed out that the country harbors different peoples like a rose garden and emphasized that bans are overcome through struggle. Following the speeches, the ribbon was cut and the center was opened.

The festival program continued with a molasses competition held in Cumhuriyet Square.
