Canapo Art Gallery was opened for business in 1994. Seeing a great demand for Fine Latin Art, Carlos Porras, owner of Canapo Gallery decided to focus on Latin Art in his gallery. Using the broad meaning of the Latin word and its origin from Italy, Canapo Art Gallery features artists from Italy, Spain, France as well as artists from Mexico, Chile, Peru and the rest of Latin America.
Canapo's commitment to bring unique art has been realized through the years with artists such as Mexican watercolorist Ruben Resendiz, who created a new style within the watercolor technique in which he uses only two to three colors creating an amazing effect of light and shadow. Also, Fray Robertino who developed a unique technique called sculpture painting. From Chile, Francisca Valenzuela who has created and mixed techniques combining the realism and abstract styles into one by adding a special texture to her paintings.
Celebrating 86 years, this non-profit, cooperative gallery features over 100 local professional artists and an outstanding selection of paintings, graphics & sculpture.

The Carmel International Film Festival celebrates and promotes the best in independent film, contemporary art and photography; nurtures the artists who are compelled to tell their stories in the medium of their choice; and supports the next generation through student arts programs, scholarships, and grants.
Our mission is to celebrate the artistry of film and to educate viewers with film offerings conceived and created through a uniquely Jewish lens. Our intention is to entertain, to provoke discussion, and to provide experiences that engage both mind and heart. We hope that our festival will help bridge cultural and religious differences and contribute to solidarity and peace within our greater community.
