LOS MERCADOS is a beautiful two–story re-modeled hacienda located in the Zona Romantica area of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico offering a variety of shops; from fresh produce and wine & spirits, to a delicatessen and a café.
Beyond the ornate gates, the open-air courtyard hosts café tables, a fountain and plants making the perfect place to enjoy a freshly prepared sandwich from MIKEY’S, a piece of fresh fruit from DON FRESCO, coffee and pastries from K’ RICO : ) or a glass of wine from CORK+BOTTLE. Four tasteful shops ring the central courtyard offering locals and visitors to Puerto Vallarta a place to enjoy the best of yummy delights.
But upstairs in this new collection of shops, you’ll discover a place that helps you unleash the artist in you! At FIREWORKS, A Paint Your Own Pottery Studio, you’ll have fun painting your own ceramic plates, cups, tiles and a variety of other items. You pick it! You paint it! They fire it! Forget about bringing home useless knick-knacks, at FIREWORKS, you can create with your own hands a memorable souvenir of your time spent in Puerto Vallarta.
Béatrice, the owner and in-residence artist says it best… “I believe there is an artist in all of us waiting to get out. My goal is to provide a relaxing and cheerful place where a little paint and a piece of pottery turn into a treasured reminder of time spent with friends or family. Since there is no studio fee, there is no time pressure; my hope is that you will come to paint, make more friends and have a great time. Simply come in, pick out the piece of pottery you want and then slip into art therapy. I have books, stencils and painted samples available for inspiration and I’m always there to help. Draw your design, paint it and sign it. I fire it and you pick it up within four days. Everything is included in the price of your pottery, no hidden fees. Come and be inspired to create. Spend time with friends and have lots of fun!” To contact FIREWORKS call 322.222.2037 (in Mexico) or e-mail: fireworks@losmercadospv.com. (This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
