The Nave del Azúcar, part of the old Pilar sugar mill, has just reopened its doors as an exhibition centre, after a long restoration process.
Over a hundred works of art are now on display there, within its 800 sq/m, distributed over two floors. This present display is part of the Ramon Portillo Picture Competition. In fact, so many artists took part in the competition that the works of some of them spilled over into the Casa de la Condesa.
Motril councillor, Manuel Ballesteros, has issued a press statement to inform road users that habitually use the old Velez Benaudalla road that this road will be closed on Monday.
After see what happened, further down in the coast in Calahona, the Motril Town Hall is eyeing nervously three of its own ramblas that have not been cleared out of choking vegetation.
That is what the residents of Calahonda are asking themselves after extensive flooding beset the town. The fact of the matter is that torrential rain cannot be blamed on municipal authorities, but the readiness – or lack of it – of a town to cope with such phenomenon is quite another matter.
