A cultural event titled “The Land and Knowledge of the Past” will take place on Tuesday, 10 November, at 6:00 PM in the Gran Tarajal Library.
Organised by the Cabildo of Fuerteventura through its Cultural Heritage Service, this event is part of the “Encounters with Heritage” series, aimed at educating the public about the island’s history and traditions.
The session will explore traditional knowledge related to agriculture and land use that shaped the daily lives of previous generations. It will feature speakers Juan Miguel Torres Cabrera and Anastasio Martín Roger from the Cultural Association Más Ruines que Caín, who will also perform a play called “Arrancadas de porfías.”
This initiative seeks to honour and recognise the value of inherited knowledge, customs, and traditional lifestyles as integral elements of Fuerteventura’s cultural and ethnographic heritage, thereby helping to preserve the island’s collective memory.
