Eight days learning wool weaving on a foot loom in Momostenango. Dates: March 5 to March 12, 2027.
Spend a week between Quetzaltenango (Xela) and Momostenango learning with Jun B'atz', the studio of Byron and his family of weavers.

Between the study days, there is time for markets, scenery, and rest.
