The Gran Canaria Art, Culture, and Ruralities Exhibition, promoted by the Insular Association for Rural Development, has concluded a successful stop in Valsequillo and is now preparing for its next inauguration in Tunte this Thursday, April 16.

This traveling cultural project, which previously visited the Elder Museum of Science and Technology, aims to highlight the value of local heritage and the island's roots. The initiative is establishing itself as a meeting point where art, tradition, and rural development converge, offering a contemporary perspective on the richness of the rural environment.
During its time in Valsequillo, the exhibition fostered a space for inspiration and learning, connecting participants and visitors with the cultural essence of the area. It emphasized authenticity and proximity, underscoring the importance of local communities in preserving traditions, knowledge, and ways of life that form part of the island's heritage.
The project's next stage will be in Tunte, where the exhibition will continue its mission to disseminate, celebrate, and protect the rural aspects of Gran Canaria. With each new location, the exhibition strengthens its role as a platform to showcase local talent and foster pride in local roots, at a time when rural themes are gaining increasing relevance in the archipelago's cultural agenda.
