Highlights

Hello! We are Karina and Fernando, a very Oaxacan couple who seeks to share with you our pride in the crafts of our beautiful state.
In this experience you will learn and create your own craft.
We will take you to the first artisan town, San Antonino Castillo Velasco, famous for its beautiful hand-embroidered textiles and a place where you can learn and embroider a small detail that you can take with you.
Later we will visit San Martín Tilcajete, a place recognized for its Alebrijes and where you will have the opportunity to learn about the entire process to achieve these unique pieces. Here you can paint your Alebrije. And finally San Bartolo Coyotepec, the cradle of black clay. Here we will learn the process and elaboration of these beautiful crafts, in which we will participate to create and design a unique piece in the world.
We want you to take not only a great experience and a piece of Oaxaca with you.
