The Cultural Older Volunteers celebrate his 20 years teaching museums (17/10/2014)

The mayor received them today at the Palace Hall |

Self-taught and very vocation.

Here's how it began, and still continues today, the Cultural Association of Volunteers for the Elderly, which this year celebrates 20 years teaching through guided tours to some of the museums in the city of Cartagena visits.

A total of 40 older members of this group whose only requirement to enter is be a member of the Home of the Pensioner and be eager to learn.

This Friday, the 17th, I received the Mayor, Pilar Barreiro, in the Town Hall to tell the details of the programming they have prepared for its twentieth anniversary.

It will be on December 12 when held at the headquarters of the Open University in Cartagena a round table in which there will be a review of these 20 years of Association and will award diplomas to these volunteers.

The mayor, like the museum directors and other representatives of the region will attend this activity.

The next day a mass and a great meal is held.

This was explained on Friday one of these volunteers, Francisco Ballester, who pointed out that on average per year around 20,000 visits are made, without the arrival of cruise ships from this last period.

The Captaincy Naval Museum, the Artillery, ARQUA, Arsenal and are some of the museums where these volunteers, a coordinator at each center, take guided tours for children, students and seniors visits.

Are conducted Tuesday through Friday, but also perform Saturday and Sunday by appointment.

The rest of the time we have dedicated ourselves to studying the history of Cartagena by journalists, archaeologists, historians and writers, then I explain to our visitors, explained this morning the President of the Association, Carmen Pallares.
