14th Anniversary Youth Classical Concert » November 18

Biblioteca Los Mango’s 14th Anniversary Youth Classical Concert on Thursday, November 18, at 6 pm at the Library.

This yearly concert in its 7th year with the aim of encouraging the practice of ‘classical’ music among our young Vallartans will again feature aspiring musicians – pianists, guitarists, mandolin players, singers … to perform to the public at large.

It’s open to every young musician around Bahia Banderas, in Vallarta as in Nayarit and the Biblioteca’s Opening Anniversary concert will feature again students from various schools, Pierre Faure, the Syndicato Philharmonico de Vallarta, Jean Piaget, private music studios and workshops to name a few of our regulars.

So come one and all and join in the cheers at our yearly celebratory youth musical event….. the ONLY one in town showcasing motivated young musicians good work and applauding their persevering teachers and dedicated parents.

Even with the scarcity of resources and facilities in town towards the cultivation of this genre of music, the audience is always enthralled by the high level of playing from our enthusiastic participants!

There is a minimum donation of 50 pesos towards the Blblioteca’s own fledgling yet promising music education program.

How Safe is Puerto Vallarta?

An interview with Vallarta Mayor Salvador Gonzales Resendiz by Ventura Orozco Osorio.

…and a somewhat less formal (and more real) take on safety in Vallarta. If anyone wants to know the editorial bias of this website on the question of safety in Puerto Vallarta and Mexico, the first video pretty much summarizes it. This bias comes from over five continuous years of living and traveling in Mexico.
