     * Last month’s “Christmas Village Art Walk,” was fun. It put me in mind of a retired expats’ Halloween, there were so many of us wandering around in lower Ajijic. Fourteen galleries were represented.

     * Brian Pimlott will be showing his work for the first time since December 2002 with a One Man Show at Villa del Arte in Ajijic. The core of his new exhibition will be several pictures which capture the vitality and sensory stimulation of life in the village.
The show opens on January 3, 2004 with an Artist’s Reception from 2-5pm and runs until January 24 at Restaurant Galeria Villa del Arte, Rio Bravo in Ajijic. Wine and Botanas will be served. Info at 766-0543, lucyandbrian@laguna.com.mx
