Puerto Vallarta - Be sure to stop by the Isla Rio Cuale on Sunday, April 6th for the Fiesta Ecologico, a free all-day event organized by Vallarta Verde, a group of young and ardent ecology-minded activists who are working to foster "green" thinking among Vallartenses.
Scheduled to take place in front of Cuiza Restaurant, near the Museum of Archeology on Isla Rio Cuale from 11 am till 8 pm, the keynote theme of the day is to build public interest in exploring all ways to preserve the very few green spaces remaining in Puerto Vallarta.
The event will feature theater, poetry and an all-day concert featuring Joe "King" Carrasco, Don & Rhonda, Paco Barajas, Azul, Lalo Quimixto, Teocalich, Philippo lo Grande, Oscar Fuentes, Jerôme, Baco, Martín, Los Goodies, Rasta Michol and other local artists who are dedicated to the preservation of Puerto Vallarta's ecological wonders.
For example, the group hopes to stop further encroachment of vendor stands on the island, which have ruined the former peaceful walk through a park like area on the Rio Cuale where iguanas, squirrels and an amazing numbers of birds nest.
The Isla effort will go hand-in-hand with public education through the press, in schools and in city-wide presentations to encourage ecologically sound waste management along with water and other natural resource conservation.
The event is free and everyone is invited! Help us educate the population of Vallarta of the importance of saving our ecology and the remaining green areas in our beautiful town. Celebrate Green Sunday with us on the Island Rio Cuale at La Cuiza.
From the southbound bridge, Cuiza is located down the stairs and toward the ocean. From the Malecon, access is down the stairs and straight ahead to Cuiza on the right past Oscar's and River Café.
