The story
Alebrijes are brightly colored fantastical creatures, an emblem of Mexican folk art.
With the help of a kind alebrije, guests must bring joy back to the workshop.
How it works
As a team, they paint a figure with natural ingredients following the right color pattern, which they discover through the stories told during the feast.
Meanwhile they taste Oaxacan antojitos: tlayudas, tasajo and more.

- The good alebrije: the guests' ally.
- The bad alebrije: a mischievous color thief.

History and culture in every scene
As in all our experiences, the hosts' dialogue and the event's activities are written with real information about Mexican history and culture. You have fun and, without even noticing, you learn. The hosts explain the origin and meaning of the legend or tradition, and where the symbols, rituals and customs that appear during the night come from.
Format and customization
“The Alebrije's Dream” is one of our Mexican food tastings productions. We can adapt it to your venue, group size, menu and language, as a private event or on dates open to the public.
