The Associazione Progetto Calandra APS, with the patronage of the Municipality, organises in Taviano the Christmas courses dedicated to the nativity tradition: a free creative path to make a miniature nativity scene, from the structure to the scenography. The initiative is called Presepi in mostra and takes place from 14 November to 19 December at the Donazione Fasano, behind the fruit and vegetable market. The programme includes three workshops on the art of miniatures: demijohns on 4 December, basket weaving on 11 December and miniature olive tree on 16 December. The creations will be exhibited in a show and then returned to the participants. The courses are dedicated to the memory of fellow citizen Francesco Ria, a passionate nativity scene maker, and the proceeds from donations will be given to charity.
