Nestled in the heart of Sedona, Arizona lies the Tlaquepaque
Arts & Crafts Village, a unique destination that celebrates the rich
artistic heritage of Mexico. Founded in the 1970s by a group of artists and
architects, this beautiful complex is a hub for artists and craftspeople, and a
mecca for art lovers.
Wander
through the charming streets and discover an array of handmade crafts, from
pottery and blown glass to jewelry and textiles. The village also showcases a
wide range of fine art, including paintings, sculptures, and mixed media
pieces. Every corner of the complex is a feast for the senses, with colorful
mosaics, intricate wood carvings, and beautiful fountains.
One of the highlights of Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts
Village is its commitment to preserving traditional craftsmanship. Many of the
artists who work here use techniques that have been passed down through
generations, such as hand-painting ceramics or weaving intricate textiles.
Visitors can watch these artisans at work in their studios, and even take
classes to learn the skills themselves.
In addition to its art and craft offerings, Tlaquepaque Arts
& Crafts Village is also a foodie's paradise. The village is home to
several restaurants and cafes, each with its own unique flair. You can savor
authentic Mexican cuisine, sip margaritas in a charming courtyard, or indulge
in gourmet chocolates and pastries.
