San Angel Folk Art
Best of Mexico
In this booth, San Angel Folk Art of San Antonio presents a selection of prize-winning works from national folk art competitions, or concursos from various regions throughout Mexico. Such concursos have been sponsored by the Consejo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes for the last 30 years, and serve as an showcase for some of the country’s finest traditional artists, who compete by invitation, and often submit their finest work for prize consideration and subsequent sale.
