Last year the Banquitas House of Culture organized and hosted the “Suga City Feria Artesanal” at the end of every month. During the event artists were given the opportunity to showcase their talent in beading, painting, crotchet and other handicrafts. In seeing that the fair positively impacted both the community and artisans, the Banquitas House of Culture has decided to once again hold the event. The first fair for this year is scheduled to take place this coming Saturday at the Queen Elizabeth Park.

“The purpose is to showcase the local artist that we have in our community and also we ask the community to come and support the artist, our own artist because these people have beautiful things that they do in our community and this is an opportunity of us the community in appreciating what they do and come out and support us.”
A total of 15 artists are expected to take part in Saturdays fair. All their artwork will be on sale at very reasonable prices.
