Alcoi advances the Moors and Christians Festivals
This year, Alcoi has a great opportunity to celebrate Book Day on April 23. Thanks to the advancement of the Moors and Christians Festivals, the city can coincide the celebration with the traditional date of Sant Jordi. This allows Alcoians to enjoy a day full of parties and books.
Discounts and gift of a special edition
To make this Book Day an even more special experience, a total of 10 bookstores in the city are participating in a unique initiative. Those who buy a book on April 23 will receive a 10% discount and, in addition, will receive a special edition with photographs by the artist Elías Seguí. This work has been edited by the City Council and is a limited edition of 2,000 copies.
Presentation with outstanding personalities
The presentation of this initiative was attended by the councilor for Cultural Heritage, Ignacio Trelis, the director of the Municipal Library, Josep Lluís Santonja, representatives of the participating bookstores and Mónica Corbí and Juan Javier Gisbert, linked to Elías Seguí. All of them have highlighted the quality of Elías Seguí’s work and the impact it has had on local culture.
Activities at the Municipal Library
In addition to the festivities and discounts, the Municipal Library has organized a special activity to celebrate Book Day and commemorate 10 years of ‘La Maria no té por’. This activity will take place this Thursday evening and we invite all lovers of reading to participate.
