Hordes of happy shoppers found a treasure trove of folk art and handicrafts brought to Chapala by master artisans from all corners of Mexico for last weekend’s Feria Maestros del Arte.
"The Feria isn’t an art show, it’s a heart show,” said Maestros del Arte founder Marianne Carlson, who created a unique formula to foster the preservation of Mexican folk art.
The event brings together top-notch artisans with eager buyers while building bonds of cross-cultural friendship between the visiting exhibitors and scores of resident volunteers.
