The story

Fiesta de las Colectividades de Punta del Este in Punta del Este

A collectivities gathering held in Plaza Mexico in Punta del Este, Maldonado department, bringing together immigrant-heritage associations such as the Union Eslava del Uruguay, Slavic Union of Uruguay, to present their communities' culture to the public.

Punta del Este, Uruguay's best-known coastal resort city, is not only a summer beach destination but also home to organized immigrant-heritage associations that periodically gather to present their communities to the wider public, and the clearest documented evidence of this comes from an unusually direct source: a social media post by the Union Eslava del Uruguay, the Slavic Union of Uruguay, marking one week since taking part in an encuentro de colectividades en Punta del Este, en la plaza Mexico del departamento de Maldonado, a collectivities gathering in Punta del Este, in Plaza Mexico, Maldonado department, and thanking both the intendencia, municipal government, and the general public for the occasion.
