Designers, artists and craftsmen of the Region will show their work in 28 exhibitors, in the IV Design and other Arts Fair, organized by the Hippy Market Ant and with which the city of Cartagena collaborates.
The show can be seen on the weekend of March 17 and 18 at the Palacio de Congresos el Batel, with free admission.
The event was presented by the councilor of the Economic Strategy area, Carmen Martín, along with some of the organizers and participants, among whom was Ana Ruiz, of the Hippy Market Socio-Cultural Association;
Silvia Lara, designer and participant;
and José David Balcazar, 'Balky;
of the company BalkySub, collaborator of the fair.
The fair will combine a commercial part with another artistic one.
It will have 28 exhibitors in which designers and artisans will show their work to visitors, such as: clothing, shoes, illustrations or ceramics.
In the artistic part there will be an art gallery with a collective exhibition of painting, sculpture and photography.
Martín said that this fair is an opportunity for artists to expose and publicize their works to the public and visitors.
In addition to completing the great cultural and leisure offer of the city.
Ana Ruiz, of the Socio-Cultural Association Hippy Market, said that the fair was born from the need of designers and artisans to show and exhibit their work, a sector that is dedicated to the virtual commercialization of their works, along the lines of boom of new technologies, as the only or main output.
In addition, Ruiz stressed that 80% of the participants in the fair are women, who have had to undertake their own business, reinventing, as the only job opportunity.
In this sense, the designer and participant of the event, Silvia Lara, clothing brand 'Life is Cool', has appreciated this platform to give visibility to their work.
The diving company, 'BalkySub', will also showcase their art and offer a virtual experience.
The fair will have different incentives for the public.
