About

Instructor: Rachel-Anne Palacios Discover the art of Mexican tin embossing in this hands-on workshop! Inspired by the traditional craft of repujado (also known as hojalata ), participants will learn how artisans create decorative designs by embossing patterns into metal sheets. This folk art tradition is especially popular in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, and the state of Oaxaca, where skilled craftspeople transform tin into beautiful lamps, mirrors, ornaments, and other home décor. Join us as we explore the history and techniques of this vibrant art form and create your own embossed metal masterpiece to take home. For Teens aged 12-18 Online Registration is required
