Services/Servicios Groups: Let us plan a part or a complete artistic journey through Oaxaca Valley. We can arrange as little as a one-day folk art workshop, or as much as an all-inclusive, week-long itinerary, complete with lectures, contemporary artists studio tours, trips to and demonstrations in artisan pueblos, fine arts or crafts workshops, homestays, or hotel accommodations... Planeamos tu estancia artística en Oaxaca. Para grupos de 4 o más, podemos organizar un día de instrucción en las artes o hasta un itinerario todo incluido -lleno de pláticas (de arquitectura o de tradiciones locales), excursiones a los pueblos artesanos con demostraciones, talleres de artes plásticas, y hospedaje... "Sachmo's depth of knowledge about local artists, and Noel and Saul's enthusiasm and respect for Oaxaca's modern and age-old creative techniques is very special. We love the friendly and inviting gallery and work space, too. And on trips to visit area artists and artisans, we always feel we see something unexpected and interesting. Horizons will continue to partner with Sachmo whenever our groups visit the Oaxaca area." Katie Murphy "My students have enjoyed immensely the programs that Sachmo Centro de Arte organized for us. Noel arranged for my students to stay with host families in Oaxaca (where) my students gained confidence in their abilities to communicate with their host families and with other Oaxaqueños. She also arranged for us to learn about the different ceramic traditions in Oaxaca. We made clay whistles and bowls at Sachmo. The highlight of these services was taking the pieces we made at Sachmo to San Bartolo Coyotepec to have them fired in the traditional firing pit. My students were then able to bring their pieces home to share with their friends and family. " Lisa O'Grady |
