Monday – Friday, Nov. 1-5, 4-7 p.m.
The Alebrije is one of the many manifestations of popular Mexican art. Alebrijes are fantastical figures that are a hybrid of various animals, whether real or imaginary, and are characterized by their vibrant colors and elaborate details.
Alebrijes Iluminados are inspired by the traditional cardboard alebrije – and are a modern way of presenting them, constructed from recycled materials, decorated in brilliant colors and illuminated from within by LED lights.
