What's in Cabo at VIFAC
Our family, at VIFAC's table
In May 2024, the family behind What's in Cabo led a bracelet-making workshop for the moms at VIFAC Los Cabos. Around one long table they strung turquoise chips and colored beads — and at the end, everyone held up what they had made.
Your group can bring a skill of its own: VIFAC plans the morning with you.
