Get some color…
Art is a part of life in Vallarta. A thriving artist’s colony exists here supported by an abundance of art dealers and patrons. And it’s so easy to take it all in. Not only are there public works on display, many of the best art galleries in town can be found within a 5 block radius in the core of downtown. Every Wednesday from November to April, these galleries participate in the much celebrated “Art Walk”, hosting cocktails and art openings free to the public. It is no surprise that many internationally acclaimed artists such as Alejandro Colunga, Sergio Bustamente and Manuel Lepe have called Vallarta home.
