Governor’s Departure, RGP Events, Father & Son Art, Song & Opera

There were tears at the Convent as the Governor and Chief Minister addressed each other at a Convent reception ahead of Sir David Steel’s departure. Fabian Picardo presented Sir David Steel with the keys to the City of Gibraltar as a memento of his time on the Rock. Sir David said it had been a privilege to be a part of Gibraltar’s community, and was proud to call Gibraltar his home. Jonathan Sacramento was at the event and witnessed the heartfelt speeches first hand.  It's a busy time for the Royal Gibraltar Police. There were two demonstrations earlier this week, and tomorrow they will play a prominent role in the Governor's departure. There are other big events on the horizon too. Are they up to the challenge? We spoke to Superintendent & Head of Operations at the Royal Gibraltar Police Paul Chipolina. “A father and son: two halves of a whole, forever connected by love and blood.” ... and in this case: art. Last week, Freddie and Justin Poggio unveiled their exhibition at the Fine Arts Gallery. Their portfolio consists of no fewer than 70 pieces - that is a lot of painting! We caught up with both of them to talk about the exhibition in more detail.The Gibraltar Philarmonic Society is hosting an Evening of Song & Opera at the Convent, featuring distinguished voices, Sandra Ferrández and Javier Franco, accompanied by pianist Irene Alfageme. We were delighted welcome the trio to the studio, alongisde organiser - la que ta encarga - Maria Macias. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
