Clase de Artesanías

The art class offered on Thursdays is a great way to practice Spanish and learn about typical Mexican art! The teacher , or one of his brothers, gives a really cool explanation about their family´s history creating art and the impact it has had on their lives. At just around 40 pesos for paints and supplies, it is a great way to spend the afternoon with your fellow classmates.

I found that taking the art class really changed the way that I looked at the art sold on the streets in Mexico. Speaking with the artist is also a great way to practice your Spanish. Not to mention that late afternoons in Chac-Mool are absolutely magical! I will never get tired of seeing the way the sun hits the church at around 7:15!
