Dinnerware Artspace
Downtown Tucson · Tucson, Arizona
Dinnerware Artspace has been Tucson's most committed incubator of experimental and community-engaged contemporary art since its founding in 1979 - a span of more than four decades that makes it one of the longest-running artist-run spaces in the American Southwest. The ethos of Dinnerware has remained consistent across that history: art made in genuine relationship to community, shown in an informal atmosphere that prioritizes access and conversation over the conventions of commercial gallery culture. Exhibitions rotate regularly and have featured work in virtually every medium, with particular openness to performance, installation, and new media. A beloved institution in Tucson's creative community and a must-visit for anyone serious about understanding the city's art scene.
