According
to founder Will Sánchez, “being an artist/entrepreneur takes
much sacrifice and patience, many times your mind wanders to the
perspective of others; staff, artists, colleagues, and the
community in which we reflect and serve.
“We have
always welcomed artists to develop, not only as a studio artist,
but as artists that collaborate and co-design with community
partners or residents around a collaboratively defined
aspiration working together towards a collective goal that
causes real, effective change in the world.
“Whether
that goal is to be a voice of the underserved or the tool of
economic development. Most of us appreciate the intrinsic
benefits of the arts—their beauty and vision; how they inspire,
soothe, provoke, and connect us. When it comes time to make
tough funding choices, however, elected officials and business
leaders need to have strong and credible data that demonstrate
the economic benefits of a vibrant arts and culture industry.
“As the
arts flourish, so will creativity and innovation—the fuel that
drives our global economy. No longer do business and elected
leaders need to choose between arts and economic prosperity.
Nationally, as well as locally, the arts mean business.”
According
to Sánchez, the art gallery and boutique are not simply retail
outlets, but creative mirrors.
