THIRD ANNUAL COMITÉ NOVIEMBRE
PUERTO RICAN ARTISANS FAIR & EXHIBIT
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 2008
CHURCH OF ST. PAUL THE APOSTLE
405 WEST 59TH ST., NYC
11AM – 6PM
In keeping with its mission to promote Puerto Rican culture and art as well as to commemorate its 21st anniversary, Comité Noviembre will be inviting Puerto Rican artisans from Puerto Rico and the United States to participate in its First Annual Puerto Rican Artisans Fair & Exhibit. CN envisions the same festive atmosphere of the fiesta patronales that takes place in each town of Puerto Rico. CN will transform the venue into a typical Puerto Rican plaza with artists, sculptors, vejigante mask makers etc. promoting and selling their wares while typical Puerto Rican food is sold from kiosks and musical acts entertain throughout the day. Workshops for children are being planned, like mask making, the history of the three kings’ celebration, and much more!

CN will work with local media, (print, radio, television), to attract the community to this event. Additionally, the Puerto Rico Federal Affairs Administration, el museo del barrio and the Association of Hispanic Arts will outreach to artists on the island and mainland to participate in this event.
