Readers’ Choice 2026: Best of Art and Culture
From artists and galleries to musicians, performers, festivals, and cultural spaces, Western Puerto Rico has plenty to see, hear, experience, and support. This is your chance to nominate the people, places, and experiences that make the local arts and culture scene worth paying attention to.
For 2026, there are two separate nomination sections:
Rincón, Aguada & Añasco
Nominate artists, galleries, performers, festivals, cultural spaces, and other arts and culture experiences located in these three municipalities.
The Rest of the West
This section covers the other municipalities in Western Puerto Rico.
You can nominate as many different people, businesses, experiences, or organizations as you’d like. Just remember: one nomination per nominee is enough. Sending the same nominee multiple times does not give them extra credit. It only creates duplicate entries that we have to sort through and can slow down the nomination process.
Nomination Period: September 16 – October 15
Voting Period: October 23 – November 22
Winners Announced: December 2
