Crisanto retired from the jewelry industry but he keeps himself busy – both in his workshop and out and about, promoting Taxco by organizing classic car and motorcycle events that bring his communities together. He displays his silver scale models at each event which gives him an opportunity to show off the craft that is the lifeblood of Taxco.
"There is a lot of satisfaction from bringing people to our town, because first of all they absolutely love our town, and they actually drive their cars from Cuernavaca, Mexico City, Querétaro, Toluca, and they are fascinated by our town. The people leave very happy." -Crisanto

"I love organizing these events for people like me who love the "motor sport" (that's how we call it); it's something like a brotherhood. You start to talk to somebody that is also an aficionado and, forget about it! You make a thousand friends!!" -Crisanto

Community is all about finding a place where you belong. It doesn’t matter if a person doesn’t look like you, or even speak your language. Sometimes an understanding simply occurs. And in that moment, differences fall away and you see a kindred spirit where a stranger was just standing.
Whether you are looking at jewelry, cars or just a beautiful view, community is created when kindred souls come together and share an experience.
