Cultural experience, paint your Alebrije figure

We will go to the hotel where you are staying in the city of Oaxaca. We begin this wonderful experience heading to the land of the alebrijes, San Martín Tilcajete, where you will learn about the process of carving, drying and painting the figures. The elaboration of these ranges from small animals to the unimaginable pegasus, and mythological figures, all products of the imagination. After knowing the process, you will be able to paint your own alebrije! You will be provided with a small figure, brush, paint and with the support of the artisans, you will let your imagination fly to decorate your chosen piece. The activity lasts around 90 minutes, but don't worry, if you can't finish it, you can take it home and continue painting. The artisans of this community will share with you the tradition inherited by their ancestors.
