Memoria de Barranco: Craft, Tradition and Culture in Artenara
Artenara is hosting a day of traditional crafts, hands-on workshops, music, dancing, stories passed down orally and food tastings. The programme also includes a film screening and performances by the children's group and the Parranda de La Aldea. Admission is free.
The focus is on trades and knowledge that do not come from books, but are passed down from generation to generation: through the hands, words and experiences of the local people. The day aims to show how such crafts and customs remain alive.
The programme features traditional arts and crafts, hands-on workshops, a film screening, performances by the children's group, oral traditions and a performance by the Parranda de La Aldea. There will also be tastings of regional specialities.
The event is funded by the Culture Department of the Gran Canaria Island Council.
