Visita guiada a la exposición Laxeiro en América
The Cultural Association O Galo and the Solfa Choir organise a guided visit to the exhibition Laxeiro in America guided by Xavier P. Bujan, director of the Laxeiro Foundation.
In this exhibition we will be able to see the work of the painter from Lalín that was never exhibited in the Iberian Peninsula because it was made during his long stay in Buenos Aires, explained by one of the experts who know it best, the director of the Laxeiro Foundation itself, who will also answer the questions of the attendees.

The “Xenerais da Ulla” is the most outstanding feature of the Ulla region’s traditional Carnival. It has been held in the surroundings of Santiago since the first half of the 19th century: the “Xenerais” (generals) ride on horseback, dressed in colourful military garments similar to those of that time, but they also include purely carnivalesque adornments, which the horses also wear.
The natural region of a Ulla features an original rural carnival, whose record goes back to the mid-19th century.
