IT WAS SO THAT IN 2019 MANOS CON ARTE WAS BORN AS A DIGITAL PLATFORM TO PROMOTE HANDMADE PRODUCTS.
not only from Mexico but from Latin America; made by independent artisans or brands and/or indigenous communities.
It all started from a family trip at the end of 2018 to the city of Querétaro, Querétaro, Mexico, during a walk through the beautiful center of the capital of that state.
Jorge Aguilar (founder of Manos con Arte and Mexican), I met some artisans who were selling Christmas wreaths made of tamale leaves. That's when I got the idea of taking them to Panama since it would be something different and new and in this way promote the traditions and culture of Mexico in Panama.
not only from Mexico but from Latin America; made by independent artisans or brands and/or indigenous communities.
In order to continue expanding our roots, I joined forces with Jorge Cabrera whom I met in Panama. At first there was only a presence on social networks as a platform, then they began to attend craft fairs in Panama and also began to have the support of the Mexican embassy to participate in their
events where little by little they helped to make the project more known.
but the pride for our people and our roots has always been there. Thank you for supporting us and being an important part of Manos con Arte and helping us promote our culture and support artisans with every purchase and recommendation you make.
