Machu Picchu
Dear Readers, The Peru Art Vacation, scheduled for May 8 – 19, 2017 is created for a small group – maximum 10 people. This is truly an inspirational journey of art and sacred sites. The trip is almost full – with just a few spaces left. Contact me if you are interested: glen@glenrogersart.com
I have been taking groups on Art Vacations since 2009 to Oaxaca, Guanajuato, Mazatlan and most recently Peru. I enjoy sharing my love of travel with my love of art, printmaking and the creative process.
Here is the itinerary:
- We meet in Cusco, a beautiful Spanish colonial city with Incan sites, textiles and local crafts.
- We take the Vista Dome Train to Machu Picchu and spend 2 nights in the village of Agua Calientes.
- At Machu Picchu we will start with a special Sunrise Ceremony for our group with a local spiritual guide. We spend the rest of the day enjoying this spectacular Incan site.
- In the Sacred Valley we tour Ollaytaytambo and other sites.
- We spend 5 nights in the Barranco (arts district) of Lima, at Second Home Peru, a fabulous B&B overlooking the ocean and home of famous Lima artist Victor Delfín.
- 4 day Monotype Workshop with Glen Rogers at Taller Tress Printmaking Studio in Lima.

Here are a few testimonials from the 2016 Trip:
What a fabulous trip! Truly life changing!
I loved the places that we stayed and Second Home Peru (in Lima) was so special. Christina and Rueben of Taller Tress were very welcoming and the studio well equipped.
Thank you for a great experience. And thanks to everyone in the group for being such wonderful traveling companions. I can highly recommend this trip. Sue Gilchrist, Santa Cruz, CA
