The Paso Ancho Art Association is looking for local artists in Puerto Vallarta to participate in Río del Arte 2015, their annual art festival and fundraiser, which will take place on Sunday, December 6 from noon to 6:00 pm.
The organizers expect this year’s event to top all previous events due to a partnership with a new venue, Oscar’s Restaurant at Isla Rio Cuale and Oceanfront.
This will be the fourth consecutive year in which the event takes place, benefiting the Colina Free Spay and Neuter Clinic for cats and dogs (located at Francisco I. Madero in Colonia Emiliano Zapata).
Artists interested in participating are expected to submit materials by September 30. These should include information about their work along with photographic samples (via email). Due to space constrains, small and medium pieces are preferred. Artists are expected to provide their own display equipment, such as easels and screens. The event will feature live music and entertainment, so it is expected that Río del Arte 2015 will attract many visitors and locals. For more information, please contact Ada Colorina at adacolorinaarte@hotmail.com, Carolina Archer at doggonegoodcarolina@yahoo.com, or Karen Lahm at extravirginart@yahoo.com.
The Paso Ancho Art Association was created to raise local artistic consciousness and funds for worthy charities using art as the medium. For more information, visit PAaa on Facebook.
The Colina Spay and Neuter Clinic is a permanent facility in Old Town/Romantic Zone Puerto Vallarta providing spaying and neutering services for cats and dogs. Services are offered free to those who otherwise would be unable to get their pets neutered.
Let's all attend and show our support for not only artists but also spaying and neutering animals.
We invite you to add your charity or supporting organizations' news stories and coming events to PVAngels so we can share them with the world. Do it now!
From activities like hiking, swimming, bike riding and yoga, to restaurants offering healthy menus, Vallarta-Nayarit is the ideal place to continue - or start - your healthy lifestyle routine.
