Travel Through Color: Oaxaca

September 5th – 12th, 2026

A retreat with Bright Light Volunteers & color expert Jen Guerin, JG Color Studios

A curated design experience for those who see the world differently

This is not a tour—it’s a rare, behind-the-scenes immersion into the soul of Oaxaca. Designed for those who see the world through a creative lens, this experience offers private access to the artisans, makers, and traditions that define one of the most color-rich regions in the world. You won’t just observe—you’ll participate, learn, and create.

WHERE THE JOURNEY TAKES YOU

From walking mezcal fields and understanding the artistry behind every bottle, to painting alongside celebrated Oaxacan artists, each moment is intentionally curated to deepen your connection to craft and culture.

You’ll witness how woodblock printing becomes a voice for social change, explore markets layered with raw pigments and natural dyes, and discover how color is cultivated from the earth itself, not merely chosen.

Through cooking, tasting, creating, and exploring, you’ll engage all senses—gaining a refined understanding of how color, texture, and tradition intersect in ways that cannot be replicated in a studio or showroom.

You’ll return home with more than inspiration…
