About this Event

Instituto Cervantes in Manchester continues its storytelling series promoting children's reading. This time, in celebration of International Women's Day, we will be reading: 'Pequeña Frida', by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara. With 'Pequeña Frida', we begin a cicle of three sessions of storytelling dedicated to some of the great figures of artistic creation in the Hispanic world.

Summary: Frida Khalo was an incredible Mexican painter full of creative talent. In many of her works, she painted herself. Through her paintings we can understand her life was sometimes sad and full of pain, but we can also interpret the passion of this incredible, strong and brave woman.

In collaboration with Manchester City of Literature and Read Manchester - National Literacy Trust.

Recommended for ages 6+
