About the event
On this tour we will visit the archeological ruins in Atzompa. The excavation and restoration of the archeological site on the mountaintop in Atzompa was begun in 2005 and continues to this day. The site was opened to the public in 2015. The ruins include two impressive palaces, a ballcourt and the temple of the altars. There are some steep slopes and many stairs. People with mobility issues should probably not attempt this tour.
The ceramic artist Angelica Vasquez will welcome us to her home and studio, where she will demonstrate her craft while talking about her family and how she became an artist.
We will then visit the Coatlicue pottery workshop to see the unique pieces the Alarzon Hernandez family have been producing for four generations. And we will visit the cooperative where visitors can purchase the work of numerous other artists.
