CHRISTMAS FAIR & Arts and Crafts at Sa Taronja: 15-16 Dec 2007

11 a.m. to 9 p.m.


Admission: 3€, or 5€ for whole family. Free parking.

Half the proceeds of ticket sales go to help the association "La Sonrisa Médica", which provides clowns for children in hospital.













The Christmas Fair at Sa Taronja is an outing for the whole family. And because Christmas is one of the most important events in the lives of children, we want to make it memorable. For the little ones, there will be a Father Christmas, games and a clown, face painting, and a bouncy castle. There are various creative workshops (each max 10 participants) for children: on Saturday at 12, baking Christmas cookies; from 4 to 6 pm, artist Isabel Castro invites 5 -to-10 year-olds to "Hacer el animal" - , to do, be, create, an animal - first with games and movement, and then through drawing or sculpture, recycling household materials. On Sunday, art teacher Xisco Ballesta in another recycling workshop offers children 6 to 12 the chance to create toys which are works of art (and make great Christmas presents). All events are free.

There will also be table tennis, darts, toffee apples, hot spiced wine and hot chocolate and, for food, sausages, kebabs etc (incl. vegetarian) on sale for grilling on a great do-it-yourself barbecue, to the sounds of the Andratx choir and the Andratx childrens choir (Sunday), the folklore group Los Aires de Andratx (Saturday) and the students of the Andratx music school. There will be an exhibition of belly-dancing by Shadha and of flamenco by Elsa Montenegro.

And ... of course… the whole point of the fair.....the artisans, the craftsmen and -women of Mallorca with their wonderful wares: ceramic jewellery by Ana and Walter, shawls woven by Mariana, scented cushions by Susana, creative clothing by Vicenç, living crystal by Emiliano, candles by Silvia, puppets by Melodina, products made from the leather, feathers and eggs of the ostrich, works in metal, stone, wood and textiles, homemade Christmas specialities from Mallorca, Germany, England and Italy, and many, many more. Come and enjoy....

Once inside, all children's events and musical performances are free. Three winning tickets will receive a prize...
