The Lake Chapala Society pulled out all the stops for the unveiling and dedication of a new mural depicting the history of the Ajijic children’s art program.

The Guadalajara International Film Festival (FICG) branches out to Ajijic’s Cinemas del Lago this weekend with three recent Mexican documentaries selected from its Documentarte bill. All screenings start at 5 p.m. Admission is free of charge.

There are no punches pulled in the Lakeside Little Theatre (LLT) musical production “A Taste of Broadway,” compiled and exquisitely directed by Barbara Clippinger, to be presented until March 6.

Don’t miss the public dedication of the Lake Chapala Society Children’s Art Program mural on Saturday, March 3, noon, on the back patio of LCS. Dignitaries have been invited and mariachi music will make it a real celebration.

The Expo Chapala Artsenal crafts fair is a perfect place to look for great bargains on unique ceramic pieces and lots of other fine goods produced by local artisans.

Art enthusiasts at lakeside have until the end of February to catch the work of one of Guadalajara’s most accomplished visual artists and designers.
