Leather town to host design award
The small town of Ubrique (17,000 inhabitants), at the foot of the mountains to the north of the Spanish province of Cádiz, may no longer have its own tannery, but it is still famous for leather and leather goods.
To celebrate the importance of leather to the town’s economy, a special exhibition will take place for the fifth year running at one of Ubrique’s most famous monuments, a former Capuchin monastery dating back to the seventeenth century. This year’s event will take place on October 4 and 5.
