THE PROJECT 'FISH WITH ART'

It was born with the aim of bringing artisanal fishing closer to the public and promoting its consumption among citizens.

This project aims to raise awareness of the social, environmental, cultural and gastronomic value of artisanal fishing in our coasts and to disseminate the social and environmental role that the Marine Reserves of fishing interest of Cabo de Palos-Islas Hormigas and Cabo Tiñoso play In the regeneration of fishery resources and the conservation of marine biodiversity.

Thanks to the initiative, the Carthaginians have already discovered several species of seasonal fish caught with artisanal fishing gear, such as the blond, the blackjack or the brunette, through theatrical pills at the Santa Florentina Market, gastronomic workshops in restaurants for Children and adults and children's craft workshops.

The project is more and more successful, as shown last month, with 100 children who enjoyed the theater, 25 people who first tried the brunette and learned to cook it and 15 other children who built their own puppet in the Workshops.
