Countdown to the Marbella Art Festival
Yesterday was the press conference for the International Art Festival of Marbella which is opening on Thursday and will be open for the public from Friday at 4.30. This is going to be an amazing event featuring over 60 artists lining Marbella’s Avenida del Mar plus an amazing programme of entertainment. At the press conference the Councillor for Tourism Jose Luis Hernandez confirmed the Town Hall’s belief in the festival as highly important for the promotion of Marbella as a cultural destination and its ability to bring together so many nationalities.
President Caroline Bowley commented, “Arte Marbella brings visitors from all around the world to Marbella and promotes the town as a cultural destination, broadening its appeal. It allows people of all ages, nationalities and interests to experience art outside the gallery and makes it affordable for people to buy. We believe that bringing art to the people is a really important responsibility and so many people get to experience these works who would not visit a gallery.
