The Malta Cultural Institute is holding its annual Christmas concert tomorrow in Sliema, preceded by a fair.
The evening’s programme will feature members of the Marie Therese Vassallo Voice Studio, who will be presenting Christmas music from different countries.
These will include solos, duets, trios and choral music, with the participation of members of the audience.
The members of the Voice Studio will also put up a Christmas fair, exhibiting their own artistic handicrafts in a very informal atmosphere. Stalls will feature hand-made costume jewellery, colourful cushions, Maltese lace, tapestries, soft toys, Christmas cribs and much more. The painting exhibition on site for the month of December features works by Madeleine Vella Satariano, Mary Xuereb, Antoine Xuereb and Rita Paris. All four artists are members of the Voice Studio.
■ The event is taking place at the Imperial Hotel in Sliema. The fair starts at 5pm and the concert will then begin at 7pm.
