The 2023 Cucalambeana Fiesta will begin in a few days

Just a few days before the 56th edition of the Cucalambeana Fiesta begins, the Casa Iberoamericana de la Décima (Iberian-American Décima Center), in this city, finalizes the details for holding events that, as usual, mark the theoretical and competitive thread of the greatest party of the Cuban peasantry.

Clowncierto will be among the pieces to be shown

The Teatro Tuyo troupe announces the Clownclave academic event, in its fourth edition, beginning today to the 25th, with the purpose of polishing techniques that contribute to the aesthetics defended by the company from Las Tunas.

Culture is a living, complex, varied, and vital ecosystem for society. Not to understand it in this way is to forget Fidel's words when he said at the 4th Congress of the Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba (UNEAC in Spanish) that it is "the first thing to be saved", for being "shield and sword of the nation". To delve into the meaning of these phrases and, then, to make of it a philosophy of action from everyday life, is a necessity and an urgency, especially in such complex times.
