Faro Indios Verdes

FARO Indios Verdes is part of Mexico City's network of nine Fábricas de Artes y Oficios — cultural centers that offer free arts and crafts workshops to their communities. The building itself carries the architectural character of an older era, with a courtyard fountain and rooms that double as classrooms and exhibition spaces.

All workshops here are free, from painting and drawing to multimedia design. The center also hosts film screenings (it's a regular venue for FICUNAM, the UNAM international film festival), cultural expos, and community events. From Indios Verdes metro, take the exit at platform B and catch a bus heading toward the venue, or walk it in about 15 minutes.
