Within the framework of the Artisan Day in our country, The José Hernández Museum of Popular Art prepared a series of free activities to enjoy this weekend.

As every year, the traditional porteño venue celebrates this special day (in our country we commemorate the 19 of March) and on this occasion there will be a Fair that will take place in the Museum's garden.

All these proposals will be curated by the Artisan Field Memory Archive (UNCLE) and there will be talks for artisans and entrepreneurs, there will be an open library, live music, cinema and guided tours, among other activities.

The AMCA functions as a large database that relieves the production of a large number of artisans from all over the country.. For this year Federico Campbell were selected, Cecilia Market, Cintia Tritten, Fernanda Giudici and Patricia Ardente, Paula Ávila, Nirma Pazzoli, Aluminized Saez, Alejandro Lemos, Matilda Garcia, Silvia Di Marco and Johanna Fretez.

It is worth remembering that the Artisan Day is celebrated in the context of the Catholic tradition, to commemorate the day of Saint Joseph in memory of the father of Jesus, whose trade was carpenter. For this reason, it is the day that artisans and artisans are celebrated all over the world..
