Mexican Wholesale

The north shore of Lake Chapala is alive with the arts in all their manifestations. Music and dance — from folk to classical, theater in English at the Lakeside Little Theatre, book clubs and creative writing groups complement the offering of galleries.

Here are some suggestions to get you started. The telephone numbers are local. If dialing from out of the area, please use area code 376; for calls from outside the country, Mexico’s country code is 52. Chapala listings follow Ajijic listings, and all are in alphabetical order.
