Tomorrow Wednesday 16th January the undersecretary of Valencia's Ministry for Culture and Education, Carmina Nácher, will present the "Tourism Exhibition" to be held in the Llotja de Sant Jordi in Alcoy until next 23rd January.

The Light of Images of Segorbe is participating in this event, which will foster an exchange of the tourist possibilities available between two inland counties, L'Alcoià and Alto Palancia. The exhibition of sacred art has transferred to the Llotja de Sant Jordi a reproduction of the educational workshop at which the schoolchildren from the county will have the opportunity to learn and understand about art through puzzles, altarpieces and cut-outs.

The Light of Images is also offering craftsman-made products prepared in Alto Palancia county. Foodstuffs, ceramics, leather goods, cosmetics and woodwork are some of the specialities of the area. The tourist interest of the exhibition is rounded off with a monumental artistic guide of Alto Palancia, which covers the main vestiges of the artistic patrimony of the zone on a route which stresses the tourist appeal of each of the towns and villages in the county.

Furthermore, Alcoy is exhibiting the material with which it is taking part in the different tourist events. Interactive panels focussing on the tourist attractions of the city, such as the Twelfth Night cavalcade, the Tirisiti Nativity scene, the Moors and Christians festival, modernism, archaeology, industrial heritage, the bridges, cuisine or the nature reserves.
