Popular art fair in Cuba closes with music by the Failde Orchestra

The Fair Arte en La Rampa, which gathered more than 90 national exhibitors in its traditional venue of the Cuba Pavilion in Havana, will close with a great concert by the Failde Orchestra.

This Sunday’s program also includes a varied show for children, in which the Cascabel project will perform, according to the organizers.

As explained by the deputy director of the Cuban Fund for Cultural Goods (FCBC), Martha Ivis Sanchez, this year’s edition will feature activities for children.

For Aylín Rodríguez, mother of a two-year-old girl, this is a very good area to bring the little ones at home who are entertained with the shows created for them, but it is not as crowded as in previous editions.

The proposals of footwear, textiles, goldsmiths, ceramics and glass were very well received by the public, although several of the attendees felt that many offerings have high prices and are not as affordable as in other years.

Dance, plastic and performing arts, literature and cinema were also part of the agenda of the event, which began on July 9.

Organized by the FCBC, Artex, the Empresa de Grabaciones y Ediciones Musicales and the Hermanos Saíz Association, the fair is already a public show awaited by young people, who are usually a majority presence at Arte en La Rampa.
