Ten minutes from Best Western Hotel San
Jorge is the picturesque town of Cocorit,
seat of the Yaqui community and the Museum
that keeps a sample of this local people.
Here we have the famouse Cocorit House.
This construction dates from the previous
century, its architecture is of colonial
style. It has four exhibition rooms and an
ample garden where we find permanent samples
of painting and sculptures as well as arts
and crafts. Among the House's visitors is
the internationally renowned sculpture and
painter Jose Luis Cuevas.
Among the objectives of Cocorit House is to
support art in those people with artistic
attributes that don't have enough support.
That is why local artists call it the
region's haven for the arts.
Cocorit House is located on Hidalgo street
Number 407 in Cocorit, juts 15 minutes from
Ciudad Obregon. |
