      My son had a wonderful experience in the art program in Oaxaca. The group was small but they spent their afternoons with a larger group of students. He came home excited about Oaxacan food and culture. We would absolutely send him again.

    • fun, beautiful, and immersive

      i had so much fun on this program! oaxaca is a perfect place to explore art and culture, even if u dont have much experience with art! I would highly recommend arcos to anyone looking for a fun and fascinating summer immersion program. I have gone on multiple arcos programs and I would choose them again.
