  • L'artisanat et les arts populaires de l'état de Michoacán est une tradition régionale mexicaine centrée sur l'État de Michoacán, au centre-ouest du Mexique. Ses origines remontent à l'Empire Purépecha, puis aux efforts de Vasco de Quiroga pour organiser et promouvoir le commerce et l'artisanat dans ce qui est aujourd'hui le nord et le nord-est de l'État. L'État dispose d'une grande variété de plus de trente métiers, dont les plus importants sont le travail du bois, de la céramique et du textile. Certains sont plus particuliers à l'État, comme la création d'images religieuses à partir de pâte de tiges de maïs et d'un type de mosaïque faite de paille de blé teintée sur un carton ciré. Bien qu'il existe un soutien aux artisans sous forme de concours, de foires et de marques collectives pour certaines marchandises (afin de les protéger contre les imitations), l'artisanat du Michoacán n'a pas accès aux marchés, en particulier ceux destinés aux touristes.
