Chelem Chatter - Art in the Yucatan

Wow!  It's been awhile since I've had a chance to blog, where has the time gone? Summer is gone and Fall is here, though there isn't much of a difference here in Chelem.....still warm and sunny.

These photos are from a benefit that was done in Chelem by Artistas de la Playa.  It is a group of artists that provide free art classes for the local children.  They have opened up shop on the main road coming into Chelem.  These dedicated people donate time and materials to bring beauty into the lives of the children here and are to be highly commended.  There are so many expats that do so much for the community in order to give back for the wonderful quality of life that we have here in our little paradise.
