The Centre d’Art de l’Estació in Dénia saw massive attendance yesterday to pay tribute to Maribel Font, a prominent figure in the cultural scene of the city and the entire Marina Alta region. The exhibition, featuring 25 artists, celebrates Font's legacy as the driving force behind a solid and high-quality cultural program for over 30 years, serving as the cultural technician for the Dénia City Council.

We hope this recognition serves to highlight the importance of cultural work in our region.
