The De Colores Art Show & Festival has a new home at the Bell Arts Factory on the Avenue in Ventura, California. Although we have scaled back the show and festival, we promise to deliver the same level of incredible Latino art by more than 20 outstanding artists from throughout Southern California. The Festival will feature the best in jarocho music with Conjunto Jardin. Log on to their website to learn about and hear selections from their new CD release, Yerba Buena.

Also performing jarocho is Alma Grande (the Moraza Family), and Chucumite; beloved boleros with Trio de Colores; and contemporary Latino favorites with Los Amigos. Our folklorico dance group is the ever popular, Ballet Mestizo de Oxnard College. As is our tradition, the festivities will begin with an Azteca blessing performed by Danza Mexica Cuauhtémoc. Our Mercado will bring you original art, prints, and crafts by the exhibiting artists. For folkart, Latino clothing, books and other Latino merchandize, Under the Sun Gallery is located right in the Bell Arts Factory.

We invite you to visit the artists page for information on exhibiting artists. The Sponsor page will list all the wonderful people and business whose generosity has made this year's art show and festival a reality. Also included, for your consideration, is information regarding our various sponsorship levels.

Mark your calendar for the festival date of Saturday, July 19, 2008. The art show will continue on exhibit beginning July 9 and through August 16, 2008.
