Holiday Art Show at Colina del Sol is December 5th and that is tomorrow! So, make your plans and get ready for a great day of food, shopping and fun!
It has been a long 21 Covid months! But it looks like the Asociación de Artes will be back to normal! Our great Holiday Art Show at Colina del Sol is happening!!! December 5th from 10am - 3pm, with great artists, three great food vendors, a beer garden and lots of area to hang out and visit with friends. And while you are here, get that Holiday shopping done! This is also a FREE event! Go to the Holiday Art Show page for more information. Please note, this is an outdoor event. Face masks are not required, but requested.
And don't forget our Raffle baskets! We have three baskets, each with a value of over $950usd - and full of the things you want and need! So plan on getting a ticket or 6 for your chance to win one of our baskets, and support a great cause in doing so!!
OUR NEXT EVENTS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
Artist Studio Tour- February 9, 2022 (always the Wednesday before Valentines Day)
Festival de Artes - March 20, 2022 (always the 3rd Sunday of March)
Make sure you save the date for Festival de Artes because we are making it a huge party to make up for our lost Covid year!! We have to put the fun, shopping and entertainment for two years packed into one great day!!
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
