Den anden stop på vores tur er på Jacobo og María Ángeles Workshop, der ligger i San Martín Tilcajete, Oaxaca.

Under besøget vil du have mulighed for at lære om hele alebrije-fremstillingsprocessen, fra valg og udskæring af kopaltræ til anvendelse af indviklede designs inspireret af Zapotec ikonografi. Værkstedet har også en butik, hvor du kan købe certificerede alebrijes, som betragtes som kunstinvesteringer på grund af deres stigende værdi hvert år. Dette besøg giver dig mulighed for at sætte pris på den dedikation og talent, som Jacobo og María Ángeles bringer til mexicansk folkekunst, bevarelse og deling af den kulturelle rigdom i Oaxaca.

Vores tredje stop er på Alfarería Doña Rosa, beliggende i San Bartolo Coyotepec, Oaxaca. Denne workshop blev grundlagt af Doña Rosa Real Mateo de Nieto, der revolutionerede den traditionelle sorte ler keramik, kendt som barro negro, ved at udvikle en teknik, der giver en karakteristisk glans til stykkerne. På denne historiske atelier, vil du have mulighed for at observere dygtige håndværkere, som de demonstrerer den unikke proces med at skabe barro negro keramik. Du vil lære om de traditionelle metoder, der bruges til at forme og polere ler, hvilket resulterer i den signaturglansige finish, der har gjort disse stykker berømte over hele verden.
Den første stop på vores tur vil være på "Manos que Ven" workshop i San Antonino Castillo Velasco, Oaxaca. Dette berømte atelier blev grundlagt af Maestro José García Antonio, der trods at miste synet fortsætter med at skabe fantastiske lerskulpturer, især hans ikoniske havfrue figurer, ved hjælp af sin højt udviklede følelse af berøring. Her vil du begynde din oplevelse med en keramikkursus ledet af en af hans lærlinge, der fordyber dig i de traditionelle teknikker i værkstedet. Under klassen vil du have mulighed for at skabe din egen mezcalero, et ikonisk stykke af Oaxacan kultur, som du kan tage hjem som en meningsfuld minde fra dette inspirerende sted fyldt med historie, modstandsdygtighed og kunstnerisk.

Beware as they will forget about the tour! Then we reached the operator and were told they would come an hour late with an apology. An hour later, still no show! An hour and a half later, the calls started coming nonstop. We are getting a refund but it ruined our day.
We are truly very sorry for the delay and understand how frustrating this situation was for you. Unfortunately, during your visit it was Teacher’s Day in Oaxaca, and several strikes and road blockages across many routes created major disruptions that were completely outside of our control. We understand this may sound like an excuse, but the transportation situation that day became extremely complicated throughout the city and surrounding areas. Our guide stayed in constant communication to explain the delays and keep you updated, although we understand that the repeated calls and messages may have added to your frustration rather than helping the situation. We immediately offered a full refund as well as a complimentary future visit to compensate for the inconvenience, although we completely respect your decision not to take it. We also sincerely regret that you were not able to enjoy this tour, which we organize with great care and passion to showcase the work and traditions of our artisan friends. It is normally a wonderful experience, as reflected in the many positive reviews from other travelers. We truly regret that this situation affected your day and appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue improving how we handle unexpected situations like these.
The studios we visited were amazing! Such a wonderful experience to learn about the art, technique and history of each workshop. We also had the opportunity to make a small clay object which was absolutely fun. David was our guide, translator and drove us all day. He was kind, attentive and knowledgable of all the artwork.
We reserved a small private tour and it was outstanding. Our guide David was very attentive and facilitated our outings. He was flexible and accoodating as my kids spent a lot of time at the Clay handscupting activity. The alebrijes stop was quite nice. The presentation was done well explaining the history. The works of art and uniques creations are breathtaking. Our final stop was with black clay pottery demonstration. The Family business was very inviting to see firsthand the intricate hand-carved pieces was a treat. One gets the sense of the energy, time, and craftsmanship to create functional art is humbling. I enjoyed the historical context and cultural aspect of this trip. We would book again.
Part of the appeal of this tour was the idea of visiting the workshops of Dona Rosa and Jacobo and Maria Angeles. While we did visit barro negro and alibrije workshops, I was disappointed that they were not the specific places listed in the original listing. The lunch stop was a gorgeous property and the food was fantastic.
Amy Gracias por su comentario, si los llevamos a los talleres mencionados en el Itinerario, los talleres de Doña Rosa para barro Negro, Jacobo y Maria para los Alebrijes, y taller manos que ven con el maestro Jose Garcia. Les podemos enviar las fotos para que puedan corroborar, nose donde viene la confusion. Saludos!
