Andorra's Vibrant Cultural Week: Exhibitions, Witchcraft Festivals and Performances

Andorra's cultural scene offers a diverse lineup of exhibitions, performances, talks, and festivals this week, with fresh additions including witchcraft-themed events in Sant Julià de Lòria and Ordino, alongside dance, theatre, and heritage discussions in other parishes.

Confirmed exhibitions continue across the Principat. At the Sala d’Exposicions del Govern in Andorra la Vella, *Pioners 1884-1954. L’Andorra dels primers fotògrafs* presents personal perspectives from 11 photographers across nine collections, covering 70 years of contemporary history. It remains open until 13 March. Espai Caldes in Escaldes-Engordany hosts *Figures de l’emancipació* by French street artist C215 (Christian Guémy), featuring portraits of pivotal figures in France’s struggles for freedom, also until 13 March. Sala Prat del Roure nearby delivers the immersive *Van Gogh Alive Andorra*, bringing the painter’s works to life through advanced technology, paired with the European debut of *Finding Vincent*, running until 6 April.

La Massana’s Biblioteca Comunal Antoni Morell displays *Imatges sense fronteres*, a collective exhibition by Associació Fotogràfica Valls del Nord members capturing worldwide scenes that highlight diversity and exploration, until 31 March. In Canillo, Cal Federico presents Naiara Escabias’s *Respirs de Canillo* until 31 March. Andorra la Vella’s Centre Cultural La Llacuna showcases *L’univers de la Maite*, a selection of Maite Bernet’s prints alongside jewellery, ceramics, and enamels, until 26 March. L’Institucional in Parc Central, Andorra la Vella, features Emma Regada’s *Un cos sota 10 mirades*, exploring national shifts through body and photography, until 28 March.

New witchcraft festivals add a mystical note. The 5th Jornades de Bruixeria d’Andorra includes tonight’s 19:00 concert and lecture *Las tres muertes de Blancanieves: manzanas envenenades, brujería e infanticidio en los Pirineos* with violinist Ander Berrojalbiz and violist Maider López at Sant Julià de Lòria’s Casa comuna. At the same hour, Martín Blanco discusses *El que sembla i el que és*, linking 19th-century esotericism to the Areny-Plandolit family’s interests at Ordino’s Museu Casa d’Areny-Plandolit.

Performances and talks fill evening slots. Tonight in Canillo’s Cal Federico at 18:00, Josep Giribet lectures on Andorran police history with a focus on the parish, part of the first Jornades d’Història de Canillo. Andorra la Vella’s Centre Cultural La Llacuna hosts a 19:00 talk on *La Bressola: cinquanta anys d’immersió i innovació educativa*, marking 50 years of Catalan immersion teaching in northern Catalonia.

The Teatre Comunal in Andorra la Vella presents *A cada pas* at 20:30, a poetic journey of rediscovery in the 68th Teatre d’Andorra la Vella season.
