Dolores Hidalgo and Atotonilco
Sketching, Sight-seeing, Shopping
Day Trip
Friday, Feb. 17, 2023
Join a sketching/sight-seeing group for a day trip to the town of Guanajuato.
The Magical town of Dolores Hidalgo has historical significance in Mexico’s Independence from Spain. More importantly for us, it is the center for manufacture of decorative hand-painted Talavera pottery.
A side trip to Atotonilco on our way back to SMA will give us the opportunity to see the breathtaking folk art collection at Galeria Atotonilco and to relax with drinks at the elegant Hotel Nirvana Restaurante & Spa.
Fee is $3800 MX, includes transportation, art supplies, instruction and individual coaching in “sketching Fast & Loose.” Learn to capture the essence of the people, places and things you see in your travels.
Advance deposit of $1900 MX requested, balance payable in cash when we meet.
My prior students / attendees on previous trips get a discount of $500 MX
