Memories of Festival de Artes in March with our darling community children!
What a spring and summer we have had! All our lives changed overnight with Covid 19 - lots of struggles, but the East Cape proved we can all work together for the common good of everyone living here
in our beautiful Baja
As we plan for the events of the 2020-21 season, we are forging forward with planning
our three events, but with a HUGE asterisk that says "As Covid and Rules allows".
This years planned events are as follows:
December 6th, Holiday Art Show at Colina del Sol Club House - We are not sure if the guidelines will allow it, but we are still planning and a decision will be made in weeks.
February 10th, Artist Studio Tour in Los Barriles. This is such a favorite event for artists and guest alike, and we do hope that the virus might allow an opening up of our artists homes!
March 21st, Festival de Artes at Hotel Palmas de Cortez - our 28th year! We will have the same great artists, food, drink and our fantastic traditional Mexican entertainment! We will keep you posted on the status of this event and all three others.
We are 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- With so many schools closed, we have purchased printers to help the families print the students school work. Each printer is at a central location and they will print up the home work that is needed and it is open to all students in the districts. Not every home has a printer in it, and this way we can help where it is needed most at this time.i We are supporting three districts at this time. 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
