This exhibition is not only an opportunity to showcase the work and passion of our local producers and artisans, but also to continue to pass on our valuable traditions to future generations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Agricultural and Handicraft Exhibition, held during the popular Imnarja festival, attracts thousands of visitors each year to Nadur, a village known for its strong connection to the land and agriculture, as well as for its abundant citrus. This year&#8217;s exhibition will welcome more than 200 exhibitors from various areas of rural and traditional life. The programme includes a wide range of exhibitions exploring agriculture and apiculture (honey production), as well as other products related to local agricultural production. There will also be an extensive section dedicated to crafts and handicrafts, where visitors can discover handmade products and local art.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor of Nadur Edward Said said that &#8220;The Agricultural and Handicraft Exhibition has become synonymous with the time of the Imnarja in Nadur, and gives space to farmers, villagers, artists and those who are enthusiasts of handicrafts and trades to exhibit their products. An event that complements the rurality of the village of Nadur.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition also pays tribute to Gozitan traditions and culture through exhibitions of ancient tools and traditional working methods. Although there will be no livestock and poultry this year due to disease restrictions, organisers have announced an extension of other animal exhibitions, including exhibitions of rabbits and domestic animals such as dogs, horses, donkeys, and ponies. The traditional animal blessing ceremony will also take place on Sunday morning, an event that brings together children and families.<\/p>\n<p>Minister Clint Camilleri concluded by inviting all families to visit the Nadur Agricultural and Handicraft Exhibition which offers a unique opportunity to experience Gozitan rural life first-hand. This is an activity for the whole family, combining knowledge, entertainment, and culture, while supporting local producers and artisans and celebrating Gozitan heritage.<\/p>\n<p>Photos: MGP<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_49846\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"49846\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.0\" viewBox=\"0 0 502 315\" preserveAspectRatio=\"xMidYMid meet\"><g transform=\"translate(0,332) scale(0.1,-0.1)\" fill=\"\" stroke=\"none\"><path d=\"M2394 3279 l-29 -30 -3 -207 c-2 -182 0 -211 15 -242 39 -76 157 -76 196 0 15 31 17 60 15 243 l-3 209 -33 29 c-26 23 -41 29 -80 29 -41 0 -53 -5 -78 -31z\"\/><path d=\"M3085 3251 c-45 -19 -58 -50 -96 -229 -47 -217 -49 -260 -13 -295 52 -53 146 -42 177 20 16 31 87 366 87 410 0 70 -86 122 -155 94z\"\/><path d=\"M1751 3234 c-13 -9 -29 -31 -37 -50 -12 -29 -10 -49 21 -204 19 -94 39 -189 45 -210 14 -50 54 -80 110 -80 34 0 48 6 76 34 21 21 34 44 34 59 0 14 -18 113 -40 219 -37 178 -43 195 -70 221 -36 32 -101 37 -139 11z\"\/><path d=\"M1163 3073 c-36 -7 -73 -59 -73 -102 0 -56 133 -378 171 -413 34 -32 83 -37 129 -13 70 36 67 87 -16 290 -86 209 -89 214 -129 231 -35 14 -42 15 -82 7z\"\/><path d=\"M3689 3066 c-15 -9 -33 -30 -42 -48 -48 -103 -147 -355 -147 -375 0 -98 131 -148 192 -74 13 15 57 108 97 206 80 196 84 226 37 273 -30 30 -99 39 -137 18z\"\/><path d=\"M583 2784 c-38 -19 -67 -74 -58 -113 9 -42 211 -354 242 -373 16 -10 45 -18 66 -18 51 0 107 52 107 100 0 39 -1 41 -124 234 -80 126 -108 162 -133 173 -41 17 -61 16 -100 -3z\"\/><path d=\"M4250 2784 c-14 -9 -74 -91 -133 -183 -95 -150 -107 -173 -107 -213 0 -55 33 -94 87 -104 67 -13 90 8 211 198 130 202 137 225 78 284 -27 27 -42 34 -72 34 -22 0 -50 -8 -64 -16z\"\/><path d=\"M2275 2693 c-553 -48 -1095 -270 -1585 -649 -135 -104 -459 -423 -483 -476 -23 -49 -22 -139 2 -186 73 -142 361 -457 571 -626 285 -228 642 -407 990 -497 242 -63 336 -73 660 -74 310 0 370 5 595 52 535 111 1045 392 1455 803 122 121 250 273 275 326 19 41 19 137 0 174 -41 79 -309 363 -465 492 -447 370 -946 591 -1479 653 -113 14 -422 18 -536 8z m395 -428 c171 -34 330 -124 456 -258 112 -119 167 -219 211 -378 27 -96 24 -300 -5 -401 -72 -255 -236 -447 -474 -557 -132 -62 -201 -76 -368 -76 -167 0 -236 14 -368 76 -213 98 -373 271 -451 485 -162 444 86 934 547 1084 153 49 292 57 452 25z m909 -232 c222 -123 408 -262 593 -441 76 -74 138 -139 138 -144 0 -16 -233 -242 -330 -319 -155 -123 -309 -223 -461 -299 l-81 -41 32 46 c18 26 49 83 70 128 143 306 141 649 -6 957 -25 52 -61 116 -79 142 l-34 47 45 -20 c26 -10 76 -36 113 -56z m-2057 25 c-40 -58 -105 -190 -130 -263 -110 -324 -59 -707 132 -981 25 -35 42 -64 37 -64 -19 0 -241 119 -326 174 -188 122 -406 314 -532 468 l-58 71 108 103 c185 178 428 349 672 473 66 33 121 60 123 61 2 0 -10 -19 -26 -42z\"\/><path d=\"M2375 1950 c-198 -44 -350 -190 -395 -379 -18 -76 -8 -221 19 -290 114 -284 457 -406 731 -260 98 52 188 154 231 260 27 69 37 214 19 290 -38 163 -166 304 -326 360 -67 23 -215 33 -279 19z\"\/><\/g><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"http:\/\/livenewsmalta.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Minister for Gozo and Planning Clint Camilleri together with the Mayor of Nadur and Councillors announced that the Nadur Agricultural and Handicraft Exhibition, an annual event that has been keeping Gozitan rural tradition and culture alive for over three decades, will be held again.
