At the Mexico Folk Art Gallery in EPCOT, you can explore the vibrant craftsmanship of traditional Mexican alebrijes—intricately carved wooden figures often inspired by mythical “spirit animals”. Guests may watch artisans carefully hand-paint these colourful pieces, each one uniquely detailed and rooted in Mexican folk traditions. The gallery also offers a selection of authentic items to purchase, making it a lovely place to find a meaningful keepsake or gift. It’s a calm, culturally rich stop that adds depth to your visit while celebrating the artistry and heritage of Mexico.

Tips & Facts
- Every figure is handmade from the soft wood of the copal tree, found in the hills surrounding the Oaxacan Valley of Southern Mexico.
