Arts and Entertainment
Recently named one of the "Top 10 Cities for Art Education," San Miguel de Allende offers every chance to enjoy art and entertainment in Mexico at its finest. At the heart of the city – or, el centro – is El Jardín, the town square with its ever-popular mercado, a farmer's market that recently caught the eye of Martha Stewart. And towering majestically above el centro, with its ornate architecture and stately presence, is La Parroquia, a 17th century cathedral and one of the most admired tourist attractions in San Miguel. For those seeking hands-on experiences, the city also is home to fine art institutions such as Bellas Artes and Instituto Allende where both aficionados and novices can appreciate creativity.
Artesana Rosewood Residences® model homes, Residence 15 (Casa Boceto) and Residence 22 (Casa del Ebanista), put the "art" in Artesana, serving as onsite museums that feature the work of local artists and galleries. Collections are carefully selected by Wilka Roig of Fine Art Consulting to accent the rich San Miguel de Allende architecture and décor found in our homes.
