In order to support the local artists of Oaxaca the “Hotel Las Mariposas” exhibits a wide range of traditional art.
The Hotel stays in touch with several small art shops in Oaxaca and the nearby region, bringing the local handcraft, long living traditions and values one step closer to its guests.
In the rear courtyard the Hotel Las Mariposas displays some beautiful wooden birds which are painted with different bright colours.
Those birds are built by members of the “Piña Palmera Centro de Atención Infantil, A.C.”.
Piña Palmera is a non-governmental organization which is taking care of disabled people in the southern coast of Oaxaca for over 20 years. By buying a single piece of their art, you can support the life of the indigenous people and support their artistic talent.
For further information on Piña Palmera you can visit the website of the organization: www.pinapalmera.org
