House of Hands

This is the House of Hands.

Before reaching the plaza, the costumes pass through hands that sew, clean, store, repair and prepare. This place honors the quiet work of families, seamstresses, artisans and bearers who sustain the tradition through everyday care.

Heritage does not live only on the day of the spectacle. It also dwells in a sewing table, in a trunk, in a folded cloth, in a stitch that keeps what was received.

Every costume carries many hands.

Every stitch is a form of memory.

This is the House of Hands, the place where we see everything that happens before the cuadrilleros arrive in the plaza. Here we recognize the work of those who sew, clean and repair the costumes. As we walk through the room, we see that our history also lives in the home, in the costumes and in the hands of the families who, with every stitch, care for and preserve this legacy.
