Puerto Vallarta, Mexico (February 26, 2025) – Casa Velas, an adults-only luxury boutique hotel in Puerto Vallarta, introduces a new Alebrijes Workshop for small groups. Alebrijes are fantastical, brightly colored creatures rooted in Mexican folklore that blend elements of different animals, symbolizing imagination, transformation, and the fusion of dreams and reality. Available upon request, the private workshop allows corporate retreats, incentive groups, and executive teams to connect while learning about traditional Mexican art. Guests will explore the cultural significance of alebrijes, gain insight into sustainable art techniques, and construct their own handmade creations under expert guidance. The process includes sculpting with layered paper, painting intricate details, and applying finishing touches that bring each piece to life. As a lasting memento, each participant takes home their handcrafted alebrije, a unique keepsake that serves as both a reminder of their time at Casa Velas and a symbol of creativity, teamwork, and cultural appreciation.
As part of Casa Velas’ commitment to sustainability, the workshop highlights the importance of repurposing materials in art while supporting local craftsmanship. With a dedicated team specializing in bespoke event planning, the resort offers an unparalleled backdrop for corporate gatherings that seek to blend culture, luxury, and productivity.
The experience is available for up to 20 participants, with a starting price of $1,845 USD. For more information, please call 1-888-407-4869 or visit https://www.hotelcasavelas.com/
