The Ares Municipal Library yesterday put the finishing touch on its special Samaín programming with the family storytelling session «Tarecos e castaña do alén», a free event that filled the space with stories, mystery, and shared tradition.

This activity concluded the cycle of initiatives around Samaín, promoted by the Culture Department of the Concello de Ares with the support of the Deputación da Coruña. Throughout recent weeks, activities such as the 'Mesa de Medo' (Fear Table), featuring a curated selection of chilling books for loan, and the 'Unha biblioteca de medo' (A Library of Fear) sessions, enthusiastically attended by children, were offered to the community.
The performance of «Tarecos e castaña do alén» brought families together to share legends, oral tradition, and traditional characters of this time of year, solidifying the library as a vibrant hub for culture and leisure in the town.

"From the Culture Department, they express gratitude for the magnificent response and the involvement of all families and participants."
