In 2014, Councilwoman Mary Carmen Olvera had the idea to ​create a mural on the wall of the local cemetery that bordered the Barranca de los Jilgueros. The wall was already a tourist spot known for its scenic views. The artist in charge of the project was American artist Trish Metzner-Lynch, who decided to ​​create it with mosaics, mirrors, tiles, glass, and Talavera.

Thus, Zacatlán's first glass mural (Vitromurales) was born. The artist worked with local artisans and volunteers to create the 100-meter-long work with three sections The first section, at the cemetery entrance, features scenes from the Bible; the second, on the wall adjacent to the ravine, features representative elements of Zacatlán (such as apple growing, clockmaking, and landscapes); and the third features pre-Hispanic elements, depicting the Nahua underworld.

The work attracted so much attention that additional murals began to be created in historic and forgotten areas of Zacatlán. They are now spread across Callejón del Hueso, Callejón Lindavista, and Paseo de la Barranca. There is even a small museum that displays student-made works of art inspired by movies and pop culture.
