During the opening ceremony, the Asociación de Artesanos de Montilla Solano Salido named Manuel Garrido Jiménez and Julio Portero Jurado as honorary members, in recognition of their trajectory within the association and in Montilla's craftwork. The event was attended by the mayor of Montilla, Rafael Llamas, and by the territorial delegate for Employment, Business and Self-Employment, Marina Montes, along with representatives of the Corporación municipal.
