Arts and Crafts Fair
Following last year's success, we are once again participating in the "Tradiciónate" (= Get traditional) project with our arts and crafts fair. We will set up our stalls in the square of the Cathedral (Plaza de la Catedral), each artisan offering something different.
Children can get a first taste of the world of craftsmanship in our workshops; we will hold craft demonstrations; and two artists will entertain visitors with stilt-walking, dance, storytelling, and a nighttime fire show.
We will be there on Friday the 4th of September from 6:00 pm onwards; on Saturday the 5th, opening times will be from 11:00 am till 2:00 pm and again from 6:00 pm onwards; and on Sunday the 6th, we will be open only in the morning.from 11:00 till 2.00.
