CRAFTS FAIR SANT MIQUEL DE FLUVIÀ

Another year the population of  Sant Miquel de Fluvià  celebrate the crafts fair, a fair where a lot of artisans met and show their work and they also do workshop for the visitors. This fair is the last sunday of may. So in this entry I talk about this fair: who participate, who organizes, the topic of this year...

As I have already said, this fair is the thirty first of may. We can find a lot of artisians that show the visitors their work, normally we can find a carpenter, blacksmith, who work the potter, handicrafts, baker... There's also a stand of the teenager of the civis center, I actually work there. The stand of civis center has things made of wood because is the topic of this year, but we also have another pretty things, for exaple flower crowns. Apart from that we do activities and handicrafts for kids. Another thing that deserves mention is the raffle: all stands of artisians give an object shown to ours and we raffle them as a set between the visitors who fill a form and pay 1 euro.

While celebrating the fair, in the village, som especial things take place, for example traditional catalan activity, such as castellers or they are open the dors of the famous church and some people of village represents the priests of medieval age. I forgot to say that i nthe stand of civic center we dress like medieval peolpe.

At City, he took pictures of sporting events and dances. After he graduated, Stacks did a short stint working in a steel mill before picking up the camera again working as a door-to-door baby photographer.
 
 
In this picture we can see, in the background, a small wooden house. Next to the house we can see a trees. In the foreground there is a lake, in this is reflected in the house background. We also see a small boat and a long fence.
