    Frequently asked questions about the workshops

    Do I need any experience for the workshops?
    No. The master artisans guide you step by step from scratch; the workshops are designed for adults and families with no practice in painting, embroidery or tasting, and they suit all ages.
    How much do the workshops cost?
    Each workshop shows its price on its card: they start at S/ 65 per person, tax included, and already cover the piece or the tasting, the materials, the master's guidance and a drink. For the Torito de Pucará and the hearts, the price depends on the size you choose (S, M or L).
    What does each workshop include?
    The piece you work on (Torito de Pucará, marble-dust heart, mask or cushion with its embroidery kit), brushes, paints and stencils, the master's guidance, stain protectors and a hot or cold drink. You take your finished piece home.
    How long do they last and how many people are needed?
    The coffee experiences last between 45 minutes and 1 hour; ceramic and mask workshops about 2 hours, and embroidery 2 and a half hours. All of them run from 2 people.
    How do I book and where is it?
