1st Annual Todos Santos Artist Studio and Gallery Tour
Sunday, March 14th is the first annual “Artist Studio and Gallery Tour” organized by Artists of Todos Santos. You will be able to visit the Studios of 24 Todos Santos artists, our local Museo Barrio and 11 Galleries. The studios and galleries will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The artists have working studios ranging from a tarp stretched over some poles or a shady spot under a tree all the way up to elaborate single-use designated buildings. Some of these are combined with a gallery and some are separate. This unique tour will provide the participant with an intimate look into the working lives of our local artists. At each studio the artist will be in residence and working to demonstrate his or her techniques. It is easy to visit the studios/galleries on foot on the town side but you will need a car to visit the studios in el otro lado. Parking is very limited at some of the locations. Carpooling is highly recommended. Please leave your pets at home as they will not be allowed on the tour. Children are welcome (under 12 are free) and are the responsibility of the adult accompanying them. Art pieces are fragile and some studios may contain dangerous equipment such as kilns and blowtorches.
Beneficiaries of the tour are the children’s art programs at both the Palapa Society and Escuela Pacifica. Tickets, maps and a description of each studio/gallery are available for a minimum donation of 100 pesos at Cafelix on Saturday, March 13th from noon to 3pm and on Sunday, March 14th from 9:30am to 1pm. Tour participants will receive a 20% discount at 13 restaurants making this an event not to miss. See you on the 14th!!!!
