Centro Histórico with its cobblestone streets is the home of artWalk. The purpose of artWalk is to provide a pleasant atmosphere for art collectors, art patrons, local residents and interested visitors to discover the great variety and exceptional quality of art available in Puerto Vallarta. In addition, artWalk is a chance to meet exhibiting artists, to make new acquaintances and to encounter old friends.
The artWalk season begins on October 27, 2010 and ends on May 25, 2011 with 14 participating galleries that offer exhibition/cocktails every Wednesday from 6 until 10 pm.
Because all the galleries associated with artWalk are located in Centro Histórico, walking from one gallery to another is an easy, enjoyable experience. The starting point and length of stay at each gallery is optional.
Puerto Vallarta has become an important center for the creation, exhibition and promotion of art. Centro Histórico, in particular, has fine galleries, with an increasing number of national and international artists, which rival or exceed any other destination in Mexico.
Remarkable paintings, exceptional sculptures, fine ceramics and noteworthy art in many diverse forms - these are the experiences of artWalk. |
