We all had to agree on decisions. Sometimes it takes longer to make a decision, but when it's reached we can move very quickly because we are all in agreement. The original founding group of 12 people grew to 17 by the time the doors opened for business. Members pay dues and rotate shared tasks among themselves. The gallery represents local artists as well as those in the surrounding area, from Edgewood to Socorro.
Artwork ranges from oil and watercolor paintings to pen and ink sketches, prints and photography.
Wood carvings, furniture, turned wooden bowls and mirrors of old wood trimmed with hand-worked tin can also be found. Punched tin boxes, candles and candle holders, greeting cards, jewelry and chocolate candy are included in the wide array offered to customers. The gallery also houses the Mountainair Chamber of Commerce. The chamber of commerce needed a home and someone to answer the phone. We are happy to fill that need because meeting new folks and visitors passing through is good for us.
