The 35th San Jose Jazz Summer Fest in August will showcase eight large Alebrijes sculptures, 20- to 22-feet tall, throughout Downtown San Jose until September 28. These illuminated creations will transform the city at night, merging art and music during the festival. Originating from the artistic visions of Pedro Linares López in the 1930s, Alebrijes are a vital piece of Mexican culture. The exhibition, previously popular in France, now invites the U.S. audience to immerse in this unique art form. Community events will sustain the Alebrijes' presence well beyond the festival, promoting cultural connection.
