The historic area of Vélez-Málaga will once again be filled with activities for the little ones with the celebration of two children's creativity workshops organized by the Historic Center Council and the association "La Villa Existe." The sessions will take place on the upcoming 23rd and 30th of May in the Espinar square and will offer children an experience based on art, imagination, and character creation.

The initiative seeks to foster creativity and artistic learning among children through dynamic and participatory proposals. Both workshops will be led by Daniel Hidalgo and will take place from 18:00 to 20:00 hours, with a maximum capacity of 20 participants per session.

The first meeting, scheduled for May 23rd, will focus on creative painting under the motto "Bring out the artist within you." During the activity, participants will be able to experiment with basic painting techniques and shape their own characters and artistic creations.

The second session will arrive on May 30th with a plasticine modeling workshop, where children will work on imagination and motor skills by creating figures and characters. In addition, both sessions will include moments dedicated to story reading and activities related to fantasy and artistic expression.

From the Vélez-Málaga City Council, the importance of such proposals to bring culture and art closer to young people is highlighted. The Councilor for the Historic Center, Juan Fernández Olmo, has pointed out that these initiatives allow "enhancing the creativity of children and offering them new tools for expression through art," in addition to contributing to the cultural activity dynamism in the historic center of the municipality.

For their part, the association "La Villa Existe" has positively valued the municipal collaboration and recalled the success of previous workshops held during Holy Week. Its president, Josefina Rey, explained that the goal is to continue creating spaces where children can develop their imagination "in a fun and educational way."

Registrations to participate in the workshops are already open and can be made through the email asc.lavilla.existe@gmail.com or via WhatsApp at the number 685 445 738.
