Thursday was the last day of classes for the summer session at the local Casa de la Cultura. Friday night there was a concert at the Auditorium for the dance, music, pantomime, and other students. It was well attended which was nice to see.
The first act was this young trio who did a recitation. I was impressed that they all remembered their lines so well. They were definitely cute.
I got a few pictures of some of the dancers.
Some of the stuff I just plain forgot to take pictures of. The pantomime had people laughing as it was pretty funny and well done.
Considering that the class was only 4 weeks long the performers did well.
This is supposed to be a traditional dance of the Yucatan.

Just Hanging Out
Nothing new or exciting to report, just the same old, same old routine. Spanish class, Art class, running errands, groceries, laundry, the usual life stuff.
I finished my oil painting at class, it is posted on the Art Blog if you want to see it just click on the link on the right hand side. I also finished a Pastel painting at home that is for the landlords grandsons birthday. I forgot to take a picture of it before I took it to be framed; but will when I get it back. I have started another pastel at home and another oil painting in class.
Class for this semester is done pretty much, we go on Monday to have snacks and put up all the work from the semester and then there will be an exhibition at the Casa de la Cultura on Tuesday evening at around 6:30 PM.. Come on down and see all the students work.
Our artwork is also supposed to be on exhibit at the new gallery in centro during the Mar Bermejo Festival, which is I think around the 8 th and 9 th of July. The gallery is located close to the Palacio Municipal, basically only 1 building in between them. Very easy to find.
Summer class begins on the 4th of July and runs all month with a bit different format. The class I am taking will be on Mon., Tues., Wed., and Thurs. from 4 PM to 7 PM so that should keep me busy. Then a month off before the classes resume in September.
Lots of different classes offered so if you are in the area, head on down to the Casa de la Cultura and sign up for something. I am sure you will enjoy both the classes and the language practice.
Summer is here so stay cool and don't get sun burnt.
