Our City Council made seven proposals in each of the existing categories, all of which were chosen as finalists and, at the ceremony held in the Alc\u00e1zar of Seville, three prizes were awarded to these proposals.<\/p>\n
“For Manises it is a source of pride to be able to compete in all the categories, both for different types of ceramics and at the level of associations or innovation”, remarked Xavier Morant, councillor for the Promotion of Ceramics of our City Council and vice-president of the AeCC. “From here my congratulations to all the winners and finalists, this is a boost to move forward with more strength,” added Morant.<\/p>\n
Seven candidatures were presented by the Manisero consistory, which were also finalists. Cer\u00e1micas Palanca in the traditional ceramics category; Xavier Monsalvatje in contemporary creative ceramics and Michal Andrezj Grzemski as an emerging ceramist.
