CB Morris Dancers
COSTA BLANCA Morris Dancers (affiliated to Torrevieja U3A) are a group of friends who meet at the town hall, Plaza Florida, Pinar de Campoverde 03191 (near Pilar de la Horadada) every Friday from 4 6pm to practise and learn new Morris dances which they are happy to perform at any indoor or outdoor social or charity event.
The group, who believe they are currently the only English Morris team in Spain, are always looking for new members, men or women of any age. No previous experience is necessary as training will be given, so if you are looking for a fun and not too strenuous form of exercise, contact the Squire, Jean Tonge, by email at costablancamorrisdancers@yahoo.com.
The dancers are also happy to welcome any experienced musicians who would like to join the accompanying band.
To learn more about the band contact Ian Smith by email ian@isadmin.org. You can also find Costa Blanca Morris Dancers on ‘Facebook’ or call in to a practice any Friday (except July and August).

Antón explained the reasons behind Elche being selected to host the exhibition saying, “Petit was a French consul in the Alicante region, and during his stay, he was able to appreciate the beauty of Elche and the landscapes of the province.”
The current exhibition is the first time that Petit’s work has been shown outside of the MUBAG museum. His varied collection consists of 24 paintings, including of the Palm Grove of Elche, river slopes, and monuments. The exhibition also includes a self portrait by Spanish painter Manuel De Ojeda y Siles.
