Mexico’s cultural heartbeat
Learn more about Oaxaca
Oaxaca is one of the most diverse states in Mexico. Its landscapes stretch from warm beaches to chilly mountain ranges, and every region carries its own culture, language, and traditions. It’s world-renowned for its food and for its rich textile heritage, where techniques like the telar de chicotillo are still alive thanks to generations of artisans. Oaxaca is also pure color, found in its markets, its celebrations, and its crafts.
Loom Technique
In Oaxaca, cultural richness comes alive through textiles. The Loom Technique, passed down through generations, turns memory into fabric and keeps the identity of its communities alive.
