To pay tribute to the Dances and Expressions of Corpus Christi that in 2021 were registered by the UNESCO on the representative list of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, the Ministry of Culture (MiCultura) and the State System of Radio and Television (SERTV), have been performing the recordings for the launch of the campaign of the National Crafts Fair 2023, the first with a posterior and pandemic face form.

The campaign leading up to the fair at issue 43 was filmed at the Convent of Santo Domingo, known as Arco Chato, and includes several testimonies from our country, such as devils dances, folkloric sets and artistic expressions with members of the National Ballet, the Network of Orchestra and Youth Cores of Panama and the chefs of paila from the program "Sabores del Barrio."

The promo has the participation of our main actors, the artisans from different parts of the Republic that will display and sell their products.

That promotional strategy aims to invite the general public to attend with families the fair event to be held 26 to 30 July at the Atlapa Convention Center and its organization will be run for the first time by MiCultura.

Esther Pérez de Herrera, national director of MiCultura's Crafts, said that "this fair will have the seal of MiCultura. We want the Panamanian people, as well as buying the artisan goods, to get all the inmaterial knowledge as are the dances and expressions of Corpus Christi."

"All these expressions of Panamanian culture and traditions will be observed by thousands of nationals and foreigners visiting the National Crafts Fair, which this year aims to bring together more than 35,000 people," Pérez added.
