Despite wild spirits, culture in town

It's been an interesting summer from the cultural point of view. Differetn activities, different prices, different sceneries. In July big concerts for all ages, music gallore. Like the performances by the Walls, just opposite Puerta del Álcazar hotel. They belonged to the activity "Nights and Battlements". From spanish folk to ballet. Even that old rock group, The Animals, gave us a wonderful concert. It was funny, touching because of the songs and alive.

Now, we are having "Àvila in Moon Key", more music in the same scenery. Blues, funk, rumba, flamenco. At the same time "Arteávila", a different fair for all kind of crafts: pottery, leather, crystal, silver, cloth.


An the last week we'll have our "Ávila in the Candle light", pure jazz. I'm looking forward to it. It will be held in the cloisters at Santo Tomás Monastery. These two performances are always, despite the cool night temperatures, warm and cozy.

This summer activities have the especial touch of pain because of the fire devastation, but it is good to have people together in culture forgetting about wild environmental terrorists.
