Art in Vallarta

One of the reasons I love Puerto Vallarta, is it's thriving art scene. Every Wednesday night many of the local art galleries host an 'art walk'. Tons of people show up to wander from gallery to gallery sipping complimentary wine or tequila, attending show openings and generally enjoying a wide variety of excellent art.

Another reason to love Puerto Vallarta is the Malecon. The Malecon is a wide seaside walkway of 2 or 3 kilometres in the centre of town. It is where people go to see and be seen - locals and tourists alike. On one side of the walkway is the ocean, on the other side are some of the trendiest clubs, restaurants and boutiques in town. The Malecon is also an art gallery of sorts.... as it is home to a wide variety of sculptures, both permanent and 'temporary'.
