El Paso Arts & Entertainment

Arts/ Entertainment – Links

Enriched by four centuries of diverse peoples, El Paso is one of the cultural centers of the Southwest. The Latin culture from the south, mixed with native American influences and that distinctive spirit of Texas, lays the foundation for a local culture with international flavor.

In addition to our 18 museums and over 35 art galleries, El Paso is home to dozens of world-renowned artists and performing groups.

On the other side of the border, Juarez offers a whole new world to explore. A popular playground for locals, Juarez is Mexico’s fourth largest city. Its many fine restaurants, museums, and sightseeing stops are all only minutes from downtown El Paso, just across the Santa Fe Street Bridge. For those who want a bolder taste of colorful Mexico, Juarez has traditional bullfights, greyhound racing, and authentic city markets.
