Virtual Artisan Village
Senija (Alicante)
31st of March, 1st and 2nd of April
X Ruta de la Pilota de Putxero
Arts and Crafts Fair
For the first time we can set up a fair in this village as part of the 10th edition of its traditional Ruta de la Pilota de Putxero (a gastronomic festival around a tipical local tapa, a meatball wrapped in cabbage leaves). This way we combine our Arts & Crafts and workshops with the local gastronomy. We also offer live music and soap bubble shows and there will be special performances and inflatables for children.
In addition, we celebrate the 25th anniversary of Amata with a contest of unique pieces from the participants, inviting the public to vote for the most beautiful, best or most original piece.
You can ask for your ballot paper in stall Nº 12 in the fair (with the juggling games).
We open on Friday afternoon from 6 till 9 pm, on Saturday from 11 am till 110 pm and Sunday from 11 am till 7 pm.
You will see the complete programme below these photographs.
As this is our first fair in Senija, all photographs on this page are from another Amata fair!
