R.I.P. Sam Coronado

Lost a very good friend today. Sam Coronado was great contributor to the art community. He helped so many artists, including myself. He was too young, but he left a legacy behind that will live on forever.
I will miss him.

El JJJ Del Barrio Escondido

My cousin, Johnny Joe Jasso, is now in hospice care. After many years of bravery, enduring dialysis and working hard to remain alive, he's now about to graduate to the next level.

We've traveled most of this road together, and we will be with you until the end.

You will be missed, El JJJ Del Barrio Escondido.

Our New Website! www.gallistagallery.com

After a hiatus caused by various website issues, we are back online, with a new website address: www.gallistagallery.com.  We still have a lot of work to do on it, but the basic structure is in place!

We are looking forward to reconnecting with our friends via blogspot, our new website, and our facebook page. Feel free to give us any feedback on what you find so far!

We have some exciting events coming up, including our monthly Segundo Sabado (2nd Saturday) this August 11th. You can read more about it in our Upcoming Events page,. Our featured artist this month is a young Chicano artist with a very interesting story.We are also having special guest musicians- we just found out about this today, and we'll post more about them soon. They will be a real treat.

If you can't make it to the event next Saturday, then come by and see us during our regular business hours. We're open Tuesday - Saturday, 11 am -5 pm. The exhibit, "Inside Looking Out" will be up for viewing for the following 3 and 1/2 weeks.

Viva la raza!
