A seminar about the art of hand modelling terracotta nativity figures is being held in Gozo on Sunday.

The Għaqda ‘Il-Milied fix-Xaghra’ (Christmas in Xagħra Society) is organising the seminar at the 'Ġesu Nazzarenu' Centre, Mannar Street, Xagħra Gozo near
Jesus of Nazareth church.

This year, Gozitan artist Hubert Saliba will demonstrate how he uses his art to create Christmas nativity figures using terracotta.

This year, 30 mechanical and static artistic cribs together with a large baroque crib crafted in Naples and a live nativity scene will be on show in Xagħra.

The entrance to the seminar is free.
