The EXPArTexpo
will be held at the “Baby Boomers 50+ Living Show”, the 8th and 9th
of June 2012 at Ajijic, Jalisco. We were glad to select Ajijic for representing
the most popular Retirement & Expat destination for North American
citizens, and because we conceive it as a highly organized community, formed by
individuals with a strong sense of belonging, commitment and involvement
towards the society they are part of.
One
of the favorite pastimes of retirees is ART. Knowing this, AMAR has organized
an exhibition of art for the Expat Community living in Mexico, the EXPArTexpo.
In this context, this is the first event in Mexico dedicated to foreign people
that have seen Mexico as their home and want to support, promote and develop
Mexico’s cultural life.
This
event will transcend borders and highlight what foreign people do for Mexico but
also the benefits that Mexico gives its retired and expat residents and
recognize the place that they have earned in this country. We will also count
with local and Mexican artists in order to highlight the unification of both
national and foreign individuals in the Ajijic community, which makes it a
richer, diverse and accepting society.
AMAR
recognizes the great mix of cultures that retirees develop in Mexico; they
discover a new way to express their feelings, how they are living and
interacting with its environment and the relationship with another retirees
from different countries and with local people. This art is not with the view
of their own countries: it is with the view of retirees abroad. EXPArTexpo aims
to emphasize this “Third ART” that
Expats are developing in Mexico.
