From Bilbao to Polynesia
Multi-cultural Tour with Costa del Sol DFAS

Costa del Sol DFAS (Decorative & Fine Arts Society) founded in 1988, was the first DFAS Society in Spain. A friendly, active and thriving cultural Society, we promote the enjoyment and knowledge of the Arts internationally and interest in the cultural heritage here in Spain. Attending our lectures is not just a great way to learn, it’s a way of meeting likeminded people and making new friends. We also arrange cultural day trips and multi-day tours along with many popular social events.

We’re delighted to introduce you to our 2015/2016 Programme of art lectures, given in English by accredited speakers from the UK. This year we embark on a cultural journey of a lifetime, crossing seas and deserts, visiting diverse landscapes of Polynesia, Russia, Armenia, Iran and Afghanistan exploring their art and culture. Make sure you get on board with us this season.
