Description

Visit a House-Ofrenda related to the Day of the Dead and the Mexskeletons handicrafts workshop. This place is a unique space where multiple artistic interventions and a very special ofrenda were made. Explore this house that also functions as a craft workshop and you will have the opportunity to see the artists behind the elaboration of bottles and shot glasses that are exported to more than 20 countries. Learn about the pre-Hispanic origins, the syncretism during colonization, and how this celebration is lived today. The tour seeks to merge art and the history behind the Day of the Dead celebration. This project arose with the intention of being a space where the most representative elements of the Day of the Dead are brought together, so that the visitor can experience, learn, and enjoy this tradition at any time of the year. The house is located 10 minutes away from the trajineras of Xochimilco and will be the perfect complement for your visit to the south of Mexico City. Instagram: @mexskeletons @casa.diademuertos
