Art Festivals and Special Events in and around Todos Santos

During the main season (November to April), there are many art festivals and special arts-related events that are held in Todos Santos and other locations in Baja California Sur.  Some are focused on Visual Arts; others on the Performing Arts, Cinema and Architecture.  We've shown a sampling of these events with their expected dates (check back closer to the event for confirmation as planned dates in Baja tend to be flexible), with links to their specific website if known.
 

Todos Santos Arts Festival

Now in its 13th year, the Todos Santos Arts Festival was originally a celebration of the Visual Arts.  With a change in leadership, the focus has currently shifted to the Performing Arts and a distinctly Mexican flavor.  There are classical and modern music performances, and both traditional and contemporary dance troupes, along with readings, plays and selected films.  There is also a crafts and food fair, along with a small selection of art work for sale in temporary booths.

The 2011 festival is expected to run from February 12th to the 19th.  For more information, see www.todossantoscultura.com.

 

Todos Santos Historical Home Tour

The 18th Annual Todos Santos Historic Home tour, run by the Palapa Society, takes place on Sunday, February 26th, 2012.  This guided or self-guided tour lets you enter a variety of privately owned historic homes and other buildings in the centre of Todos Santos, and get to understand their history, and see the often amazing renovations done by recent owners.  See the Palapa Society site at www.palapasociety.org for more details
 

Festival de Cine de Todos Santos

The 9th annual Festival de Cine de Todos Santos runs from February 25 to March 3rd in La Paz and Todos Santos and presents over 30 award winning feature films, documentaries and short films that show the diversity and excellence of Latino cinema.

Todos Santos Studio Tour

Returning as an annual event after a very successful launch last year, the Todos Santos Studio Tour takes you into the secret world of art in Todos Santos, letting you explore the usually private places where many of the artists create their work, as well as visiting the galleries where their work is displayed.  Come and meet the artists of Todos Santos at work!

We expect to arrange special discounts for attendees for the day at various Todos Santos restaurants to truly allow you to make a day of it. 

The 2011 tour will be on Sunday, March 20th, 2011.

More information will follow as we get closer to the event.  Artists and galleries who wish to be included on the tour should contact us via the"Contact Us" menu item, or by e-mail at artistasdetodossantos (at) gmail.com
