The Casa de la Cultura “Carlos Alonso” in El Rosario, in La Esperanza, hosts the third edition of Jornadas de Arte, opening its exhibition space to the neighborhood residents of the Municipality who make up the Taller de Dibujo y Pintura of the Universidad Popular de El Rosario, coordinated by its professor Elia Estévez, a graduate in Fine Arts from the Universidad de La Laguna. Thus, on Monday, April 6, from 7:00 p.m., it will host the exhibition “El Rosario,” which can be visited until April 30, while on Monday, May 4 through May 28 the collection “Canarias” will remain on display. Both exhibitions can be visited from 8:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Through this initiative the student body of the courses “Dibujo y Pintura” can be encouraged since they can show part of their work to the public. It is worth noting that, unlike previous editions, this year the students themselves chose the themes of the exhibitions. Each student proposed different ideas, which were later put to a vote, resulting in the selections “El Rosario” and “Canarias.” Through the works on display, each artist has interpreted the themes of each exhibition from their own perspective, bringing their personal style and sensitivity, which will yield two exhibitions rich and diverse.

His two children, now independent, visit him frequently with the aim of pulling him out of his confinement.

• 20:00-21:00 Candela de la Compañía de Rocio Pozo
• Candela is a tribute to the flamenco soul that burns in the most intimate corners of the community. On a stage that evokes a Gypsy village at dawn—with sheets in the wind and a central fire as an altar to life lived—the flamenco dancers bring to life memory, strength, and the everyday resilience of a tradition that is passed on through body and heart.
• The deep cante and the vibrant guitar intertwine with the dance in an intimate scenic format, where every gesture is truth and every step is rooted.

SYNOPSIS

In our Tempestad, Shakespeare appears on stage, now older and very frail, trying to write a final play that keeps circling in his mind. To achieve it he asks the spirits of Ceres, Iris and Juno to help him write it by embodying the different characters of the new play. Through this scenic game, Shakespeare leads us to a mysterious island where Prospero, a wise wizard, lives with his daughter Miranda. With the help of his spirit friend Ariel, Prospero uses his magic to unleash the storm and teach important lessons to those who hurt him in the past.

The play speaks of forgiveness, friendship and the possibility of starting anew, values that remain essential for both adults and children.
