A few minutes from Barranquilla, in the municipality of Galapa, the art that gives life to the Barranquilla Carnival is born. Here, between the sound of tools and the aroma of freshly carved wood, master craftsmen create the pieces that represent the most iconic characters of this great party. In this experience you will visit a craft factory where you can see up close the creative process: from carving, polishing and painting the figures in wood, to making masks and headdresses in papier-mâché, a traditional technique that shapes the colorful accessories that dancers wear during Carnival parades. You can tour the workshop, observe the dedication of the artisans and admire the vibrant universe of shapes and colors that make this tradition unique. To close with a golden clasp, you will live the thrill of being a craftsman for a day: you will paint with your own hands a typical Carnival craft under the guidance of a local master, taking with you not only a unique piece, but a part of the festive soul of the Colombian Caribbean.
