A food festival focused on northern Mexico; a book party at UNAM; a celebration of dance all month long; a tribute to the horror movies that you can include in your library and a tour of a sculpture field in Tepoztlán, with clouds everywhere… these are the recommendations of The Weekend Guide. Take note!
FLAVOR OF THE NORTH AT THE VORAZO FESTIVAL
This weekend, Mexico City will host a bit of the gastronomic diversity that can be enjoyed in states such as Baja California, Baja California Sur, Sonora, Sinaloa and Chihuahua. A dream for many good-tempered Chilangos who long for the fresh products of Baja, the succulent meat of Sinaloa or ancient concoctions such as sotol. It will be possible at the Voracious Festival.
This 2024 the first edition of six that are planned will happen and will start with the Northwest. In addition to the upcoming projects, there will be an oyster battle and the special tuna trompo, proposed by chef Christian Herrera. Read the full note at www.aderezo.mx

KILLER MUTANTS FROM OUTER SPACE
Take advantage of the versatility of events that happen in venues such as the Chopo Museum, where you can see exhibitions, but also attend other activities, like this weekend: the presentation of the book Murderous Mutant Movies from Outer Space, a project by the illustrator Mexican Mr. Power and La Duplicadora.
The publication is a tribute to the horror films that have accompanied the artist and had an impact on his creative work as well; Furthermore, it works as a list of suggestions to approach the genre and also as an analysis of how language operates when adapting foreign films to our Hispanic contexts.
Mr. Power, Jesús Pacheco Vela, the editors of La Duplicadora and Carlos Rodríguez will participate in the talk. Go expand your horizons to on-screen horror.
When and where
April 20 at 1:30 p.m. in the cafeteria inside the Chopo Museum, located at Dr. Enrique González Martínez 10, Sta María la Ribera.
