To open this week FIART will start next Tuesday 5th. Just a few days left for Pabexpo to be crowded, colorful, involved in the best Cuban trade of stuff. Its XXI edition will be dedicated to Santiago de Cuba and to the glass, so between the hit and weakness you’re officially invited. We all enjoy stopping by and wait in line until eventually we get in.
But don’t you stay just with that because we have Music and Visual Arts here and there. Also there will be Dance with a premiere by Lizt Alfonso, and in Literature is already here the APulpso number 2. You’ll see movies in Cinemas and in FAC, although there you know they’ll have much more.
So you already know something. Now is time to choose ‘cause you can’t stay at home. And we don’t lack on suggestions. See you around!
The XXI International Handcraft Fair FIART 2017 will be from December 5th to 17th as parts of the activities of the Ibero-American Handcraft Year. It will be dedicated to Santiago de Cuba province and those who work with the glass, that’s why there will be many pieces in reference to the eastern city, and glass will be the material most represented.
With the slogan “utility and offices” will be awarded the bests stands and products in exhibition. Also, FIART 2017 will have a theoretical space to discuss in the presence of Cuban and international artists and specialists about topics related to the progress of the contemporary handcraft.
