Ambassador Garza: “Culture is the key to greater understanding between Americans and Mexicans. Through their participation in the Association of Arts Presenters Conference, leading cultural figures from both countries will share the techniques and ideas that will ultimately enable us to produce more meaningful and stimulating performances and works of art.”
Mexico City, Mexico, January 18, 2006 -- We are pleased to announce that approximately 35 of Mexico’s leading performing artists, along with 100 arts officials from all over the country, will attend the Association of Performing Arts Presenters Conference in New York City from January 21 to 24. The U.S.-Mexico Foundation for Culture is organizing the participation of this talented Mexican contingent, with grants from the United States and Mexican governments and contributions from private sponsors. Each artist will demonstrate his or her abilities during a 15-minute showcase to an audience of American theatrical arts presenters, who know that talented individuals from other countries are critical to innovation in the performing arts.
