The Fiestas de Sant Joan are beginning to warm up

On Friday, June 7, in Ciutadella two exhibitions dedicated to the fiestas of Sant Joan will open. The first, "7 de Sant Joan", will open at 7 p.m. in the Sa Nostra Cultural Hall and can be visited until June 22. This exhibition will give a vision of the fiestas of Sant Joan with the public as the protagonists, via photographs by 7 Menorcan artists or residents on the Island: Lluís Bertran, Enric Servera, Pere Moscoso, Joan Bagur, Cisco Moll, Antoni Calafat and Joan Capó.

The second exhibition, "Imatges de Sant Joan", will be opened the same day, June 7, at 8.30 p.m. at the Palau Saura and will be on until June 29. This exhibition will show the works that were presented for the Poster for Sant Joan 2002 contest, the traditional "carotes" that the "caixers senyors" have given to the Town Hall over the years, ancient lances that are no longer in use and other objects relating to the Fiestas de Sant Joan. As a novelty, this year the exhibition will include an area dedicated to the children of the city who this year will enjoy the fiestas of San Joan for the first time. The area is formed of photographs of the children who are still not one year old, supplied by parents who wish to participate in the exhibition.
