On Monday, August 27th, Dr. Luis R. Vásquez inaugurated his South of the Border Museum in the Old Port, which will be opening its doors to the public as of today, Aug. 31 and be open Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, 10 a.m. – 7 p.m.

The unconventional museum/art gallery exhibits works of art, along with historical pieces and eclectic elements from around the world. This collection and museum, Vásquez explains, has taken nearly 14 years to come together. He is now enthusiastic about opening his doors to share these treasures, as well as his knowledge with anyone who stops by.

Currently, entry to the South of the Border Museum is free. Within the near future, there will be minimum fee that will go to maintaining the space, as well as for the creation of scholarships and support for “Indigo (gifted) children” in the community.

“This space is in thinking of them, to stimulate them and develop their abilities,” affirms Dr. Luis R. Vásquez who is both owner and creator of the museum. “Of course this is directed at anyone who wants to expand their knowledge horizons.” Dr. Vásquez himself plans to lead guided tours through the museum (English and Spanish), providing explanations about the various pieces.

The South of the Border Museum and Art Gallery is located in the Old Port on Calle 20 de noviembre No. 5, just behind Hotel La Roca. Turn left at the corner of Victoria’s Hormiga gallery to park by the entrance. Shortly, RockyPoint360.com will be providing more information about the museum, and an interview with Dr. Vásquez.

Lo nuevo: El Museo Sur de la Frontera

El lunes 27 de agosto inauguraron el museo South of the Border que abrirá sus puertas a partir de este 31 de agosto de viernes a domingo de diez de la mañana a siete de la tarde.

Este museo/ galería de arte poco convencional es la exposición de obras de arte, históricas y de elementos poco comunes de alrededor del mundo. Esta recopilación le ha llevado cerca de 14 años realizarla y ahora abre sus puertas muy entusiasmado de compartir sus “tesosros” así como su conocimiento con todo aquel que lo desee.

Por el momento la entrada será gratuita. Ya dentro de un futuro no lejano, se cobrará una módica cantidad que servirá para la manutención del lugar así como para la creación y apoyo de los “niños índigo” de la comunidad.

“Este lugar está pensado en ellos, para que los estimule y desarrollen todas sus habilidades” Afirma el Dr. Luis R. Vázquez propietario y creador del museo- “Claro es que está dirigido a toda aquella persona que quiera expandir sus horizontes de conocimiento”

Durante los días que esté abierto el museo él personalmente estará dando visitas guiadas y explicaciones sobre las diferentes obras expuestas.

Este museo se encuentra en la calle 20 de Noviembre No. 5, en el Puerto a espaldas del Hotel La Roca.

Y dentro de breve Rocky Point 360 les tendrá más información y una entrevista.
