2021-2022 Season is coming to a close! As many of us head north, we are alredy thinking about the 2022-23 season and what we will be doing and planning for it!
Asociación de Artes has had a tough couple of years, but we made it through! We were happy that we had two of our three events, Holiday Art Show and Artist Studio Tour, for our big event Festival de Artes, has been cancelled for two years in a row! Darn Covid!!
But, never fear! We have a jump on the 2023 show and it will be great! Schools are back in session, so the kids will be dancing and getting ready for the festival to perform, and vendors and artists are super prepared and are raring to go!
We can say we are already super prepared for 2023 so, mark your calendar for March 19, 2023 and be prepared for a “Really Big Show!”
For your planning here is our 2022-23 Season Schedule:
Holiday Art Show - December 4th (always the first Sunday in December)
Artist Studio Tour - February 8, 2023 (Always the Wednesday before Valentine's Day)
Festival de Artes - March 19, 2023 (Always the third Sunday of March)
We are still collecting SPANISH LANGUAGE books for the libraries of the East Cape area schools. Reading levels from kindergarten to high school. Books of all subjects - classic and modern. The kindergarten has specifically asked for picture books and English words are fine as the little ones mainly look at the pictures! If everyone brings down one or two books, we should be able to replace all the overly loved books in the libraries!
School Supplies and Assistance- We will still continue our printing homework if it is needed - which we hope the students can get back to the classrooms! To print the schoolwork we had a printer at a central location and they print up the home work that is needed and the students would pick it up at the local DIF office. Last year we supported three districts. Then when schools open up, it will be that time of the year that we go out shopping and deliver school supplies to the 19 area schools we support. Come and join us for the deliveries and see what the Mexican schools look like.
We will continue to keep you informed with the East Capers Magazine published Bi-monthly October thru April. Look for our activities on this website, the East Capers or announcements on BPE. For information on any of the things we do, contact us at eastcapearts@gmail.com
