Highlights
This tour takes you behind closed doors to discover Guadalajara's thriving art scene! The places we visit are off-the-beaten-path, hidden gems, including artist studios and private galleries/showrooms, where you will meet local artists (both emerging and established), and have the chance to chat with them, see what they're working on, and learn more about what makes Guadalajara an incredible arts destination. This tour is a must-do for (contemporary) art collectors, artists, and art lovers!
What we do on each tour is subject to change, depending on artists’ availability, and which galleries have exhibitions on. You can count on visiting:
-3+ smaller / lesser-known galleries
-3+ artist studios (not open to the general public)
-Street art / graffiti murals
-Perhaps a special surprise… Remember, what's happening in the local art scene is always changing, and temporary events/exhibitions/bazaars/etc. pop up regularly!
