Was in the old town area and stopped in when something caught my eye. Will say the staff and the signage does not make for a welcoming environment. I'm note too anxious to go back.

We came here on a Saturday evening and the store itself had a beautiful selection of artwork from local artists. I especially love their mission of getting more underrepresented artists' work featured. The store is big with two large rooms and it is curated through different sections of art.I purchased a decorative plate and a card made by local artists but there's so much I could have purchased here. We were also greeted by a friendly staff member and she explained to us how the art is made by local artists.This store can be hard to spot from the center square since it is behind a couple of restaurants, but I'm glad we found it. I definitely would visit this store again next time I am NM and others should too!

A cute little shop hidden behind much larger shops on the back side of Old Town. They boast the works of 36 different artists. Once again the mediums used are as varied as the artists: wood, copper, photos, stained glass and other random pieces of art. A lot to see and more than a lot to buy. We settled on a piece that reminds me of a roadrunner. It was made by an artist who uses "desert debris" as his medium. It'll definitely be a conversation piece.

The older lady who I assume is the owner, was extremely rude. I'm a tourist and the place was cute so I was doing a Snapchat story inside the store. She said "don't take pictures in here" in a loud hostile voice instead of saying "can you please not take pictures" then provide a reason why like .. idk maybe the owner doesn't want a free advertising of their store to get more customers in lol. Well instead of me buying something from them nowIm here writing this review and I'm not promoting her store. Good luck to her nobody was buying anything anyway.

Stopped by while visiting from Las Cruces, the staff explained the shop was all art and photography from local ABQ artists. I believe the shop is even ran by the artists. Everything was VERY reasonably priced, a bonus for those looking to support locals without breaking the bank. The pieces ranged from postcards and prints to wooden kitchenware and art-quilts. An entire wall was dedicated to the doors and entryways of New Mexico, which we picked up two framed sets of photos.

Excellent selection of art and gifts with a friendly staff and a great location in Oldtown. What more could you ask for? I especially enjoyed the selection of woodwork available. ;)

Great photography and very unique art. Val, the owner, was very pleasant and shared the history behind each I item of interest. I purchased some great collections and a variety of photographed note cards. Superb, a must visit in ABQ!
