As you can see from the photos in this article, the Jenny Polanco Café project is already underway and taking shape nicely – with the installation of a shiny new bar at the end far end of the new “Jenny Polanco Project” store in the Casa del Rio in Altos de Chavón.
The Café is scheduled to be opened in September and once completed, we expect that shoppers and visitors to Altos de Chavón will be able to stop by and enjoy a quick coffee or soft drink on their way around Altos de Chavón – or of course whilst shopping in Jenny Polanco.
As yet we have not received any further details but as soon as we know more – we will be sure to let you know!
Jenny Polanco Project: where fashion meets traditional arts and crafts
The Jenny Polanco Project store in Altos de Chavón is quiet possibly the best place in Casa de Campo (and La Romana) to purchase unique, traditional and handmade arts and crafts. In store you will find hand carved plates and models, genuine Haitian and Dominican paintings, traditional Dominican carnaval masks, wicker bowls and baskets, wooden table decorations and even furniture – all hand made by skilled Dominican, Haitian and Caribbean craftsman.
“Project is an art space designed to support the Caribbean crafts, in order to promote hand made design and workmanship in our countries”
— Jenny Polanco, Dominican designer
Alongside the traditional arts and crafts, Jenny Polanco proudly presents her own fashion designs; tropical white linen dresses and blouses with amber detailing perfect for the warm Caribbean weather, stylish purses and fashionable jewelry.
