Las Tunas, Cuba.– Marjorie Castellano González, communications officer for the UEB FCBC Las Tunas, commented on the products available to the public. “We showcase a wide range of items, including works made with natural fibers. These include hats, coasters, fans, and other crafts that honor the artisanal traditions of our province.

“We also have products for decorating outdoor spaces, such as porches, patios, and gardens. In ceramics, we offer sets of cups with attractive designs, as well as vases of various sizes and colors, whose prices range from 300 to 600 pesos. Additionally, we have interesting wooden items that recreate, for example, animal figures.”

Under the motto "Art, Utility, and Craft," the fair offers the opportunity to acquire a varied products made from natural or recycled resources, with the added value of artistic quality, while also serving as a platform to promote and sell the work of local artisans.
