The celebration, spanning several days during the week of April 23, includes a diverse program designed for all ages. Activities will commence on April 22 with a wooden bookmark and flower workshop at the Senior Citizens' Center, organized in collaboration with Cruz Roja.
April 23, the central day of the commemoration, will feature an intense day of activities. The Senior Citizens' Center will host storytelling sessions created by its own users, while the Cultural Center will offer family-oriented storytelling sessions such as ¡Hola pajarito! and Trotamundos. The day will culminate at the Library with a Reading Party, where attendees can share their books, and a concert by the group Polvo de Buitre, blending literature and music.
One of the most anticipated events is the Book Fair, scheduled for April 25 in the Plaza de la Villa. This space will gather tents from bookstores, publishers, associations, and book signings, offering cultural activities such as an engraving workshop, a rap performance inspired by Don Quijote, the children's show Pinocchio, una historia delirante, and storytelling sessions.
“"From the City Council, we continue to work to bring culture closer to all residents, with proposals designed for all ages that encourage participation."
The program will continue on April 26 with specific workshops at the Children's House and the Youth House, aiming to further stimulate creativity and connection with reading among young people. Culture Councillor, Almudena Sánchez, has emphasized the importance of these initiatives for the community.
The City Council invites residents and visitors to participate in these activities, which solidify Soto del Real as a vibrant open cultural space, promoting reading and cultural gatherings.
