Ribera Arts Review - December 1, 2011
Michoacan spirit
Several communities of Michoacan will congregate in Ajijic for their annual artisans’ exhibition on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, December 9, 10 and 11 and possibly into December 12. The venue this year will be the new amphitheater area on Ajijic’s malecon, just across the street from the Abbeyfield home at the foot of Aquiles Serdan on the lakeshore. The exhibition will feature the fantastic ceramics of Ocumicho, pottery from Patamban, embroidery and straw artwork from around Lake Patzcuaro and new work from Cocucho that will include pots for plants, along with their famous urns. Warm, hand-loomed shawls from Anguhuan will be available for purchase.

Re-opening
“Abundance,” a play by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Beth Henley, comes to the Auditorio de la Ribera del Lago in La Floresta this weekend, playing Friday and Saturday, October 28 and 29, 7:30 p.m.
Next week VIVA la Musica! presents another fall season concert featuring Guadalajara-based husband and wife team Rosalinda Preciaso and Guillermo Salvador, who use their four hands at the same piano.
