More than 30 artists from Colonia San Antonio will be spotlighted in a collective “Pop Up” exhibition.

The entrance for the MyStudio Pop Up will be the main academic entrance of the Instituto Allende on Ancha de San Antonio #22.

The San Antonio Open Studio Art Walk began circa 2013. Starting with a smaller event headed by Shannon Reece, which evolved into the San Antonio Open Studios headed by Jane Dill and Kathleen Cammarata. It then evolved into MyStudio/MiEstudio headed by Peter A Davis. Currently, the organization is in the trusty hands of Zara Fernandez, M.B Director of Operations of the Institute Allende (assisted by Meryl Truett and Peter A Davis).

Colonia San Antonio is one of the oldest colonias in San Miguel de Allende. It began to develop in the early 20th century. San Antonio is a lively area of traditional Mexican families that many artists call home.

MyStudio´s main mission is to recognize and promote national and foreign artists who make up a varied and inclusive community. MyStudio is also proud of the free Outreach Program that celebrates the Mexican heritage and emerging artists of the Colonia.

The Instituto Allende, founded in 1950 and incorporated to the University of Guanajuato continues to be a Plastic and Visual Arts University that also offers a variety of non-accredited Art Workshops, Spanish Programs, Conferences and Seminars for the general Public and is affiliated with the Veterans Affairs of the United States of America (G.I Bill / Post 911).
