Keeping Music Alive: A Night of Collaboration and CommunityOn August 29, 2024, a vibrant musical journey unfolded in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. The event, aptly titled "Keeping Music Alive," was a collaborative effort by Casa Karma, Spanish Learning Tree, PrintPV, Act2PV, and La Catrina Cantina, under the leadership of Georgia Darehshori, the owner of Casa Karma (a villa and live entertainment venue). The progressive musical adventure started at La Catrina Cantina and then made its way to Mary Ann’s Ovations Piano Bar at Act2PV. “This was a win-win night. Everyone will help everyone,” Georgia told OAPV while marching down the sidewalk. And a win it was, with venues having capacity crowds enjoying the live music. To commemorate the night, cake (three cakes) was served at Mary Ann's Ovations Piano Bar. The inscription on the cakes,"Let the 'live' music play on and on," perfectly encapsulated the spirit of the event for a thriving music community in Puerto Vallarta.
@moihmx historical and documentary researcher of Puerto Vallarta, shares his work on the curation of the 7-photo collection exhibited during the celebration of the 92nd anniversary of Puerto Vallarta’s range lights or lighthouses. The event took place at the newly restored Matamoros Lighthouse, rescued thanks to the efforts of the @rmptodo art collective. During the exhibition, we honored these concrete giants that have illuminated the path to Puerto Vallarta’s future since the early 20th century. We also celebrate the collective’s dedication to preserving these significant spaces and turning them into venues for cultural events, such as the wonderful concert that capped off this special day.

Kenya Cuevas led the Vallarta Pride 2024 parade with a striking caravan and a funeral carriage, dressed in black along with members of Puerto Vallarta’s trans community. This powerful image honored the victims of transfeminicides and hate crimes against the trans community. 🇲🇽 Tragically, Mexico is the second country with the most hate crimes against trans people, only after Brazil. Kenya Cuevas, the most important trans activist in Mexico’s history, led the march in a deeply significant gesture. Her activism began in 2016 by marching with the coffin of her brutally murdered friend, Paola Buenrostro, and today, she continues to raise her voice for all the victims. Puerto Vallarta, the most important LGBT tourist destination in the world, celebrates love and diversity freely and shows it is crucial to continue marching for our causes. There is still much to fight for and celebrate! #pride2024 #pride2024🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈
