It is the first and only experience in Oaxaca dedicated to Female Empowerment, where the local economy of more than 20 native families is supported. Our goal is to give visibility to Oaxacan Women who do not abandon their dreams. We visit small, non-touristy workshops, but with great quality in their crafts.
Pickup included
We will begin our adventure by meeting the only woman in the town dedicated to making alebrijes, the most popular craft in Oaxaca. First, we will purify our energy with the copal incense that she gives us. You will be able to meet your spiritual and protective animal, which are part of the Zapotec culture.
We will visit a family workshop where women are dedicated to making textiles on a backstrap loom, one of the oldest weaving techniques in Zapotec culture. They make shoulder bags, table runners, placemats, purses, bracelets, belts, and more.
We will visit the only workshop in Oaxaca dedicated to making mirror frames, true art! It is a group of women who make baroque mirror frames in wood, covered with gold leaf and fine silver. They have also participated in the restoration of different temples in Oaxaca.
