Araribá Indigenous Art Center
Araribá Cultura
A long-established Indigenous craft shop and small gallery beside the town square, gathering pottery, feather ornaments, weaving and wood carvings from Amazonian peoples.
Araribá is a long-established Indigenous culture shop and small exhibition space near the central square of Alter do Chão. It collects and sells handicrafts from many Amazonian peoples, including pottery, basketry, wood carvings, feather ornaments and masks, many with notes on the source community. The interior feels like a small museum, which makes it a good place to learn about local Indigenous culture before choosing souvenirs. Prices are higher than roadside stalls, but the sources are more reliable. It is open during the day, though exact hours should be confirmed on site. Some items made with feathers or wildlife materials may be restricted from leaving the country, so check before buying.
