50th anniversary activity

The Councilor for Culture, Angélica Portillo, has announced that the committee responsible for organising activities relating to the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the Nerja Caves has organised activities for June 5th, World Environment Day.

The first part involves the pupils from the Humanities and Social Sciences group at IES Almijara. One group will be responsible for cleaning the Nerja Caves, the other for cleaning at Ingenio de San Antonio Abad, both groups receiving explanations from experts about the importance of preserving our heritage.

Probably beats cleaning their rooms!

Later, both groups will meet at the Nerja Cultural Centre for a lecture on Heritage Preservation by the famous humourous cartoonist Forges and the president of the Asociación de Cuevas Turísticas de España ACTE, Juan José Duran.

An illustrated book relating to the conference will later be published by Centro de Ediciones de Málaga (CEDMA).

The event is being sponsored by the Nerja Caves Foundation and at 11:15 on June 5th, Forges will be holding a press conference in the Nerja Cultural Centre.
