**Interview with Williams Medina on the Upcoming Musician’s Day Celebration**
**Jose Rojas, CNP 25,946**: Thank you for joining us today, Williams. To start, can you tell us about the significance of Musician’s Day and how it will be celebrated this year?
**Williams Medina**: Thank you, Jose. Musician’s Day, celebrated on November 22 in honor of Saint Cecilia, is a special occasion for us to appreciate the contribution of musicians to our culture and society. This year, we’ve been busy organizing a series of events, including a special session in Plaza Bolívar with keynote speaker Eloísa Abreu and a Thanksgiving mass at the San Juan Bautista Church.
**JR**: That sounds wonderful! What other activities are planned to mark the occasion?
**WM**: Alongside the mass and the discussions, we want to create a festive atmosphere where local artists can showcase their talent. We’re working closely with various organizations, including the Union of Radio, Cinema, Theater and TV Workers, to ensure that musicians and artisans are celebrated and recognized for their hard work.
**JR**: Speaking of recognition, I understand that there will be honorees this year. Can you share who will be recognized and why?
**WM**: Absolutely! We have agreed to honor some incredible individuals in the music community: Eloísa Abreu for her contributions to music education, Héctor Suárez, and José Quintero, who is well-known in the musical world as C. These artists have played significant roles in enriching our local music scene, and it’s important that we recognize their impact.
**JR**: It sounds like a deeply meaningful celebration. How can the community get involved in this event?
**WM**: We encourage everyone to come out to Plaza Bolívar on November 22, participate in the mass, and support our local musicians and artists. It’s also a great opportunity to learn more about the music culture we have right here in Valera. Everyone’s presence will make a difference!
**JR**: Thank you, Williams, for sharing these insights. We look forward to a fantastic celebration of music and the arts!
**WM**: Thank you, Jose! We hope to see everyone there!
