La Colmenita in Las Tunas.

With the tenderness and professionalism that characterize it, La Colmenita de Cuba arrived in Las Tunas this Wednesday as part of a national tour celebrating its 35th anniversary. The Leonardo Mackenzie Grant Sports Hall hosted the performance of "Goldilocks, the Three Bears, and the Prodigious Decade."

Las Tunas artist  Eliados Ávalo Rosales

Eliades Ávalo Rosales, despite his mastery, is not one of the most media-savvy artists in Las Tunas. Perhaps this is because in more than 50 years of artistic life, he has tried to distance himself somewhat from trends in the visual arts.

More than 90 percent of the Las Tunas cultural programming is supported by amateur artists.

Mercedes Arias Visbal is over 70 years old, but that does not stop the majestic flow of her voice. Knowing that dreams have no age, she has approached the Tomasa Varona Cultural Center, the Raíces de San José project, and has even sung a few times on the provincial radio station. “She used to be a teacher, now she is on her way to becoming a soloist,” says Diosdado, her spouse and friend, proudly.
