  • 5/5 Donnie O. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic place to look for art and have a quick lunch. We didn't realize it but there's about 30 different boutique art galleries in this one location. There's also a great burger joint at the very entrance when you walk in and a cafe toward the back. Bathrooms for super clean and everybody there was very helpful.

    This place is awesome! The art is incredible. Take your time and look around. Everyone was kind and very pleasant except one Gallery owner. I won’t tell you who she is, I’ll let you find her on your own. Hint: after talking to her you might need to get a glass of wine that’s really close by.

    If you're seeking an enchanting artistic experience, look no further than this space nestled in the heart of SMA. This hidden gem is a true haven for art enthusiasts, offering a plethora of opportunities to unleash your creativity and immerse yourself in the vibrant Mexican world art. One of the most captivating aspects of this center is the chance to engage with talented artist while they work their pieces. Conversations with these artists provide unique insights into their their creative processes, allowing you to gain a deeper appreciation for the art forms.

    No fee at entrance. Great food in the Center restaurant. Very interesting local art spread out over separate rooms. Don’t miss it.

    A definite must when visiting San Miguel. Not a long walk from the city center. Amazing art expositions and galleries.

    I attended the 19th anniversary of the art walk at Fabrica, such an incredible space and a nod to the history of the building. It was a fabulous night of art and music.

    Fun art gallery located inside an old textile factory. Various pieces of old machinery are located in the various stores. I enjoyed the open air space within the location as well.

    When visiting San Miguel de Allende, and you love art, this is the place to come. A lot of studios and galleries with very creative people, something for every taste, most everybody's very friendly. Sam's has the best hamburger in town. The outdoor Cafe in the courtyard offers a wonderful brunch. The art and the home interior studios reflect the beauty and excitement of San Miguel. Easy to get there by taxi, also lots of parking. The place is dressed for Christmas, Feliz navidad!

    A must do stop in San Miguel. Art in every medium and dimension in a superb setting. We met artists and had an excellent lunch. The gardens were especially beautiful.

  • 5/5 Phil M. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing artist colony in an old factory feels like walking through an eclectic art gallery, except it's free. Definitely worth spending a few hours here even if you're not in the market to buy. You may well be tempted however, such is the quality. There are cafes for refreshments and multiple very clean restrooms throughout the building.

    This is a must see place. Very pretty place to walk and check out the art. Has a few cafes a s eateries. High end art work and boutiques. Beautiful old building. Very calm and relaxing place to stroll around and check to shops. About 20 min nice walk from the central cathedral area. Plenty parking if you want to drive or short taxi ride.

    Had a beautiful visit at La Aurora, no wait, free entrance, so many stores to see, you'll need to make a few trips to appreciate the many stores. They also have a restaurant on the premises.

  • 5/5 Jayne P. 1 year ago on Google
    A delightful experience! We spent over 4 hours admiring such a variety of beautiful art. The history of the mill with pictures and old equipment is so interesting. It's a must do when visiting San Miguel de Allende

  • 5/5 Pat H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great old building with historical information about the textile mill that used to occupy the site. Fine art, fabrics, household items, clothing-- we didn't even see the whole thing and will return. We walked from Zona Central through a fun and very old school feeling neighborhood-- with even more art galleries!

  • 5/5 Juancho D. 10 months ago on Google
    This place was an old textile factory that got turned into galleries, antique shops and artist studios. Similar to what you would find in the states. They also have two cafes and a chill duck pond. I was pleased by the amount of local art, as well as artists recognized nation wide. There were even some international pieces like MC Escher and Warhol.

    It is a beautiful place to walk around, and I normally do enjoy going to art galleries and museums but I felt it’s overrated. This is a place for tourists or foreigners with lots of money, so do not expect a local experience here.

  • 5/5 Lisa F. 8 months ago on Google
    Great place to walk around and enjoy the art. There is a cafe there but we didn't eat there.

  • 5/5 Kristy J. 6 months ago on Google
    This is one of the reasons for moving to SMA! The art, artists, design rooms, classes -and Grandpa & Sons still one of our favorite restaurants!

👍 Today, I visited La Gruta and, based on other people's reviews, I really didn't know what to expect. So let me tell you ALL about it!
