1. Alebrije workshop and gallery: Learn what your spirit animals are based upon your birthdate in the Zapotec calendar. 2. Black Clay Pottery: Our demonstration was in Spanish but it was extremely interesting even without understanding everything that was said.
3. Weaving of Naturally dyed wool: Witness the process of brushing and spinning to create skeins of yarn. Very interesting to see the pigments used to dye the different colors of yarn from sheep and llamas used to weave the incredibly designed rugs, runners, coasters, wall hangings, etc. for sale. You can also buy skeins of yarn! In addition: See the Big Tree and church in the square where there is also a market with a “food court” inside. With all this, I was pleasantly surprised that nothing felt rushed. Use this tour as a way to buy amazing gifts!
