The Cloister of the Casa Grande Cultural Center is hosting the exhibition 'Murcia, half a century ago, from yesterday and until next January 13th.
Crafts and customs of the orchard ', which gathers half a hundred photographs by José Rubio Gálvez.
The images have as a point of attachment the anthropological and landscape contemplation of the Murcian orchard and its people during the sixties, giving shape to a compilation that today constitutes a valuable testimony to remember and better know the customs, daily life and details as well as the Ethnographic beauty of a past that seems doomed to disappear, close in time but already far from the natural, social and cultural plane.
The inauguration ceremony, held last night, was animated by the performance of the Santomera Gang, which played several carols, and was attended by about eighty people.
Among them were the mayor of Santomera, Inmaculada Sánchez Roca, the Councilor for Culture, María Jesús Férez, the author, Pepe Rubio, and Alberto González, president of the Friends of Culture and Traditions of Santomera, an association that has collaborated with City Hall to bring the sample to Casa Grande.
The exhibition can be visited with free admission from Monday to Friday, from 8 to 14:30 and from 16 to 21 hours, on the ground floor of the Cloister of Casa Grande (Calle Cuatro Esquinas, 58).
