XVI Meeting of Lacemakers: The lace of the heart of Pontevedra
In this promising April, the threads of tradition in Pontevedra will be intertwined in an event that is already part of the fabric of the city: the XVI Meeting of Lacemakers City of Pontevedra. On April 21, 2024, the Fairgrounds on Calle Alexandre Bóveda s/n will open its doors to lovingly welcome all those who wish to join this celebration of lace and the stories they have to tell.
Pontevedra, cradled between the Lérez River and the Ría, is a land that exudes history and beauty in every stone. Its monuments bear witness to the passage of centuries, and its charm envelops everyone who approaches with an open heart.
The historic Puente del Burgo, with its arch over the waters, witnesses the passage of centuries, connecting past and present in an eternal symphony. The cobbled streets of old Pontevedra guide the traveler towards the majesty of the Basilica of Santa María, where the Gothic hears the sighs of those who walk by.
And what better opportunity to explore these wonders than during the XVI Encajeras Meeting. Beyond delighting in the carefully made lace, visitors will be able to immerse themselves in the essence of the city. Why not take advantage of your visit to discover the exquisite local cuisine? The tapas of Rúa das Avenidas or the flavors of the Mercado de Abastos are authentic delicacies that conquer the senses.
And for those looking to expand their experience, how about a walk through the gardens of the Pazo da Cultura or a visit to the Pontevedra Museum? Immersing yourself in history while enjoying art and culture is a unique opportunity that perfectly complements the liveliness of the encounter.
The Meeting program, from the opening of the Venue until the time of the fellowship lunch, promises a day full of smiles and talent. From the beginning of the day to the delivery of gifts and diplomas, each moment will be another thread in this lace that unites hearts and traditions.
For those who wish to join this celebration, registration is open in the form on the website www.afieitina.es.
May this XVI Encajeras Meeting be an opportunity to forge new friendships and share the richness of a tradition that speaks from the heart of Pontevedra.
See you soon, lace lovers!
