Klein-Schreuder Sculpture Garden


Fiesta in the Sculpture Garden

Every year on 16 April, l'Alfàs del Pi commemorates the fact that on this day in 1836 the municipality became independent at the separation from the Barony of Polop. Since 2010, the Premi L'Alfàs is also awarded annually on 16 April. This year the prize goes to Johannes P. Klein and Johanna Schreuder of the Klein-Schreuder Foundation.

"This prize was created to appreciate the heritage of our municipality. On this occasion, we want to recognize the wonderful work that the Klein-Schreuder Foundation is doing to promote culture and art", explained Mayor Vicente Arques.

Both Johannes and Johanna thanked the municipality of l'Alfàs del Pi for presenting this award, "for the trust and dedication they show to our Foundation, which after 20 years of hard work and many investments have enabled us to create the sculpture garden that you can see today."

To celebrate the award ceremony, the municipality organized a festive gathering in the garden with an extensive breakfast and music by a clarinet quartet.

The founders and the board of the foundation were greatly praised. The garden enjoys regional, but also national and international fame and the contribution to art, culture and tourism are very valuable for the municipality. Recently, the garden was also recognized as one of the ten most beautiful in the Valencian Community.

Finally, the guests took a walk through the garden. The garden was again much praised.
