The subdelegate of the Government in Lugo, Olimpia López, presided today in the library of the Bonxe Penitentiary Center, an event held with the impulse of the Subdelegation of the Government in Galicia and the Commissioner for the Celebration of the 50 years of Spain in freedom. In it, the inmates delivered three memorials commemorating the celebration.
There, the subdelegate thanked the involvement, work and patience of the people who prepared the pieces: “The piece of ceramic that you made began to be something very simple: a piece of clay that gradually took shape. It is a job that requires patience, attention and time. And it also requires learning, testing and, when necessary, starting again,” he said.
In the act, one intern recited poetry and another participated singing a song with guitar accompaniment. In total, about twenty inmates attended the meeting.
López wanted to highlight the importance of the cultural activities and workshops and training that are carried out at the center: “At Bonxe, working with ceramics and other trades allows you to gain knowledge, develop skills and discover skills that can be useful to start shaping a different future.”
In conclusion, the deputy delegate also thanked “the work of the professionals who accompany the inmates in these activities”, which allow to promote activities such as this one, aimed at promoting the active participation of the inmates of the penal center in raising awareness of democratic values in society.
