Part of the “social and cultural project” underpinning the Casa del Poble, Inhòspit is put together once a year in an effort to reinvigorate la Mola not only socially and culturally, but financially, too. Open-air performances will take place in the wood near the school, molí d'en Botigues windmill, the town square and the Casa del Poble patio. Shows are scheduled all three days at six, seven and eight p.m. with a preliminary meet-up at the Casa del Poble. To sign up to participate in one of the workshops, send an email to casadelpobledelamola@gmail.com.
