The Workshops

Workshops are offered in four sequential sessions for children ages 4-12. Each session focuses on a different aspect of artistic discovery.

The Art Market

You can find a wide variety of locally handmade trendy and artistic products that may serve as decoration, gifts and for personal use.

All pieces for sale are primarily intended for children of all ages, but adults will find unique items for them as well.

The Gallery

Artwork by artists from San Diego County and the city of Tijuana. The purpose of this space is to support local artists and give the community an opportunity to appreciate and purchase their work.

The pieces displayed at the gallery are carefully selected to be appreciated by the youngest of children, and still be appealing for adults of all ages.

About Pachis

Pachis means “flowers” in the art language that Juliana Flores, the artist and creator of this innovative project, created when she first discovered texture and color as a young child gardening with her mother.

As an adult Juliana has channeled her passion for art by creating Pachis: a program that uses art as a medium for children to develop a greater sense of self and the world around them.

Pachis is not a typical art studio for children, and does not offer typical art classes. Pachis is founded on the belief that children are born inherently creative and can discover themselves through artistic expression. By providing a structured curriculum in an open environment the child artist can feel safe to express themselves. Juliana and the Pachis team establishes rules and expectations with the students to form their “creativity spaces.”

Pachis encourages children to think outside the “art box” and introduces them to new ways to make and experience art. The program encourages self-expression, builds self-esteem, and cultivates outstanding, creative individuals. Art is an excellent medium to nurture values into new generations with the purpose of becoming better citizens and therefore creating healthier societies.

The seeds that Juliana put into Pachis to grow are: passion, dedication, innovation, patience and a commitment to children, parents and the community.
