Nava’s cider museum, an infinite crisis

After the resignation of the president of themanager Foundation, Nava’s cider museum’s crisis turns worse.

THE CIDER.- The resignation of Emilio Ballesteros as president of the Foundation Nava Museum Of Cider, denouncing the lack of criteria of the Museum (“ethnographic or Disneycider”) and the excessive political control by the PSOE, as well as the lack of commitment of the “Principality” made clear once again the situation of the Museum, very necessary in Asturies, but now found in deep permanent crisis almost sine its beginning.

  After the appointment of juan Cañal (PSOE),mayor of Nava as president of the foundation everything seems to indicate that things would look better in a coming future, at least regarding the relation with the “Principality”. In facto, the first proposal of the new president is the integration in Recrea, the Public Society of Touristic and Cultural Management and Promotion of the “Principality”, which looks far, far away from the normal foundational aims of that museum.

Anyway and as LA SIDRA already had denounced,“what’s happening with Nava’s Cider Museum is very serious and shows disabilities and lack of institutional support for a project in which there should be total agreement”.
