Fabrica La Aurora
As a working factory opening in 1902, La Aurora was equipped with cylinders, spindles, and looms to process bales of raw cotton. In these same factory walls that now house world-renowned art and serve as a space of creative inspiration, the process of cleaning, ginning, carding, and spinning raw fiber into a yarn or thread was done from start to finish. By the 1970’s, production at La Aurora also included the heavy canvas used for making tennis shoes.
