While running errands the other day, my host Mom saw a poster advertising La Feria Indígena, or Indigenous Artisan Fair, that was in town this week. Since this sort of craftwork is related to my internship, I was particularly interested in visiting; and so, we took the metro over to Cerro Blanco on the opposite side of Santiago and checked it out.
Once there, I was surprised by the variety of booths: bags, ponchos, decorations, toys, spices, street-food, music, books, you name it. I also enjoyed talking with the artisans, who were particularly friendly.
