Toledo will host the seventh edition of SuperArte, an inclusive artistic event organised by Fundación SIFU, on 20 October at the Palacio de Congresos. This marks the first time the event will take place in Castilla-La Mancha, supported by the regional government and various public and private entities.
The production features a diverse group of artists, both with and without disabilities, and combines music, dance, and technology to highlight artistic talent and excellence. Among the performers will be Albacete musician Antonio Belmonte, who was named Hijo Predilecto de Castilla-La Mancha in 2022, and baritone Johann Sebastian Salvatori, who resides in Toledo. Both artists have autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
This event coincides with the twentieth anniversary of Fundación SIFU, which promotes social and labour inclusion for people with disabilities through training and the arts. SuperArte will feature adapted instruments and resources such as EyeHarp, a technology that allows users to play music using eye movement.
The government of Castilla-La Mancha is collaborating on the SuperArte 2026 programme through its Departments of Education, Culture and Sports and Social Welfare. The programme includes scholarships, training, and artistic support to create professional opportunities and foster an accessible and inclusive culture.
This year, scholarships awarded in Castilla-La Mancha include those for pianist Adrián Sánchez Isla from Villarta de San Juan, Antonio Belmonte from Albacete, the Banda Musical de Yeles, and the Fundación Gema Canales, which will offer training in EyeHarp.
Tickets for the 20 October performance can be purchased through Toledo Entradas. The initiative aims to engage institutions, businesses, associations, families, and the general public, bringing together culture and inclusion for all citizens.
