Tabasco Artisans Create 10-Meter Christmas Tree with 500 Sombreros

Indigenous artisans in the town of Nacajuca, located in the Mexican state of Tabasco, have created a special Christmas tree decorated with 500 sombreros, among other products. In addition to the sombreros, the 10-meter tree is adorned with 100 bags, traditional fans and drums, all of which were made by artisans from nearby Mayan towns. Miguel Sánchez, one of the contributors, said the project allowed some of the artisans to earn income amid the COVID-19 pandemic. “It motivates people. Everyone was delighted because it is what they like: something representative of the municipality. Nacajuca is a town that has a lot of culture,” Sánchez said.
