The Fundació Miquel Navarro of the Valencian Community has started activities for the public today with the first of a series of guided tours of the sculptor’s workshop, which will take place during these last months of the year.
The objective of these visits, organized by the foundation in collaboration with the Mislata City Council, is that the residents of the town can see the facilities in the Morería neighborhood where its most universal artist works and which will soon be adapted to become a museum .
In this spacious warehouse, which was formerly a drugstore warehouse with art deco reminiscences and which houses a Civil War shelter in its basement, there is currently part of the work donated by Miquel Navarro to the foundation he created in 2020, as well as various tools that the artist usually uses in his creative processes.
The group that has started this cycle of visits is made up of older people from the painting and drawing workshop of the El Sur de Mislata Municipal Home, who have been accompanied on the educational tour by Miquel Navarro himself and by the vice mayor of Mislata and member of the Board of Trustees of the foundation, María Luisa Martínez Mora.
