The first Art Museum in the city. ABOUT US. 4D Art Museum is a place where community meets to live astral experiences, to get inspiration, to relax, and also, to act. Moreover, it is also a place to be intellectually and spiritually stimulated. We truly believe in ARTivismo (ARTivism), which is a way to combine ART and CULTURE to awake consciousness about different social issues. By being the first Art Museum in Puerto Vallarta, we have created a new space to know, through a very innovative way, more about our Mexican ancestral roots and a unique kind of painting technique that invites us to travel to other dimensions. 4D Art Museum invites you to live a never-seen-before art experience, taking you into a mysterious and colorful Fourth Dimension (4D). We will enjoy a visually surprising tour, full of magic and energy that will lead you to other dimensions.

If you are a lover of truly unique art forms, don't miss the opportunity to experience this unusual gallery. Colour, form, sculpture, painting, multi-media, hospitality; this tour provides a view of this exciting artist's perspective. I loved it and will return every year to follow the evolution of his work.

Colectika is an exceptional gallery, specializing in regional Mexican art. Much of the collection is dedicated to wooden painted carvings (alebrijes) from Oaxaca or Huichol art from the Wixáritari, who live in the Sierra Madre Occidental range in the states of Nayarit, Jalisco, Zacatecas and Durango. The alter comes in two forms – carvings that are covered with colorful small glass beads or yarn “paintings”. Both of these art forms incorporate symbols of importance to the indigenous residents. The gallery is owned and managed by Kevin Simpson who has developed close relationships with many of the artists and who is extremely knowledgeable and will spend as much time as one needs explaining and discussing the art with visitors to the gallery. Colectika will also provide shipping to one’s home. While the prices here are not cheap, they are extremely reasonable for the quality of the work exhibited. This is definitely a place for both serious collectors and those interested in beginning a collection. There are also two other shops in town showing similar work but in smaller venues. These are both called Peyote People and are owned and managed by the same folks. No visit to Puerto Vallarta should be considered complete with a visit here.
3. Museo Los Abuelos Familia Sauza
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 56 reviews
It opened its doors in 1985, with the aim of making known the origins of tequila and the history of the Sauza family, who for three generations, from 1873 to 1985, devoted themselves to the production and promotion of this drink. The building that houses it dates from 1820 and since then belongs to the Sauza family; It was built as a house-room and over the years it functioned as an educational center and house of culture, sponsored by Mr. Francisco Javier Sauza. Among the numerous objects and pieces of art exhibited, there is a mural by the master Gabriel Flores, allusive to the development and evolution of tequila, from pre-Hispanic times to the present; all the recognitions granted to the Sauza Tequila from 1873 to 1987, such as the Gold Cup of Good French Taste; paintings by Guillermo Chávez Vega; a rustic kitchen; agricultural implements; memories of the television program Noches Tapatías; photographs of the town of Tequila; archaeological pieces of the region

This museum is near the main plaza of Tequila. It was the family home of the Sauza family who had an early distillery. The house is in good shape with a pleasant, arched courtyard, interesting tilework, and many antiques. A guide will take you through and ours spoke very good English.
