Plastic arts, theatre, dance, music, literature, cinema and more make up the 14th edition of Entijuanarte. Cultural Festival, held from October 5 to 7 that projects the city of Tijuana as a showcase for artistic expressions in all senses. Chihuahua, will be the guest state of honor, and Nuevo Leon is the honorary guest state.

Cecilia Ochoa Vázquez, President of the Entijuanarte Foundation said that this festival is a window to project the best of the talent and proposals of the artists of the state and of the invited states.

Highlighting that since its founding in 2005, the festival has achieved its objectives of providing a cultural approach to the public of all ages and social strata, he said it is also a bridge of collaboration without borders between state and municipal authorities and civil society for ongoing development and consolidation.

"The festival would hardly have taken the profile it has today without the support of the authorities. We are a whole, it is a sum of wills".

The challenge for the future is to find a wider space for its expansion, in order to accommodate all the artistic proposals that exceed the programming capacity.

Master Roberto Vázquez Díaz, Deputy General Director of the National Institute of Fine Arts, said that Entijuanarte is a meeting that since 2005, "is a wide range of artistic and cultural activities with the aim of creating spaces for recreation and training in which all kinds of audiences and disciplines coexist".

He added that "from October 5 to 7, the City of Tijuana, in Baja California, where this prestigious festival takes place, will open its doors to different proposals from local artists and from different states of the country, and from other latitudes”.

"In this way, the public can enjoy culture and art through different expressions such as painting, sculpture, photography, engraving, performance and installation. But also, cinema, literature, music and dance".

This time there will be at least 110 plastic and visual proposals, of which at least 80 percent are from the region and the rest of the states of Chihuahua, Nuevo Leon, Zacatecas, Sonora, Durango, Coahuila, Morelos, Jalisco, Michoacan and Mexico City.

The artistic offer will be made for all kinds of audiences. Dance and theatre will be represented by: Pendulo Cero, from Tijuana. From Morelos the contemporary dance company La Silla de Daniela; the Colectivo 60 mil from Michoacán and 2/7 Teatro from Zacatecas.

The family and educational proposal comes from Sonora with L'Ormiga; the Show de Burbujas is presented for the first time in this festival and from Europe, to the eccentricity of Sienta la Cabeza.

Plastic and visual art are framed in a history, in a vision of the real and the imaginary and an expression of human activity that come from Chihuahua with the following exhibitions: Colectiva de Fotografía and Septentrión contemporáneo, a plastic exhibition.

T-Four and Shente, a member of the HEM collective, two of the most important representatives of urban art will perform a live mural performance, seeking to bring the audience closer to urban artistic expressions, describing the richness and positive effects of the Graffiti Mural and its character when it is created under artistic and non-vandalistic purposes.

The exhibition of the Taller de Gráfica El Chanate, Laguna Cumbias shows an interesting fusion between the graphics and the folklore of the cumbia lagunera.

The expression and feedback of ideas will take place in the Second Floor series of conference, which, in a metamorphosis, is in a process of formation.

The development of the cinematographic art of the State of Chihuahua will be represented with the exhibition of short and feature films.
