Entreamigos' Ninth Annual Children's Art Festival

February 27, 2017

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - When was the last time you visited the beautiful town of San Francisco (San Pancho), Nayarit? When was the last time you took one of the nicest day-trips that you can make when you go "Up North?" Now is your opportunity!

On Friday, March 3, Entreamigos will celebrate 11 years of representing a bridge between cultures, providing educational opportunities for kids and families in San Francisco and the region through creativity, consciousness in environmental actions, love and commitment with the community, through the 9th Festival de Arte Infantil and community fair.

About Entreamigos

• It is recognized as a CECA by Semarnat: Educational Center with Environmental Consciousness

The theme of this year's 9th Festival de Arte Infantil is "Descubre la Feria Ambiental" because of our commitment and search for creating and augmenting awareness about the importance of taking care of our environment, and how our actions and attitudes can change our daily lives, to promote a healthier, more loving life between ourselves and the world we live in.

Next Friday, March 3rd, we will showcase the work we do at Entreamigos: productive workshops, recreational and environmental games, story telling, amongst others. We also are collaborating with different organizations with alike purposes in environmental topics. It will be a representative, artsy and cultural event, with music and traditional cooking.

We hope you can join us in an afternoon with discoveries and fun for the entire family, deepening the concept of sustainability and ways of participating to take care of our environment for a more creative, conscious and loving world!
