Mimbres Region Arts Council Gallery
Historic Downtown Silver City · Silver City, New Mexico
The Mimbres Region Arts Council Gallery is the main exhibition venue for Silver City's vibrant arts community, showcasing works by local and regional artists in a welcoming downtown space and hosting Silver City's beloved First Friday ArtWalk events that bring gallery visitors into the town's growing creative district each month. Silver City — a former copper mining town in the foothills of the Gila Wilderness — has reinvented itself as one of New Mexico's most dynamic arts communities, attracting painters, potters, sculptors, and makers who value the town's affordable rents, extraordinary landscape, and genuine creative community. The Arts Council Gallery is the institutional anchor for this community, providing exhibition opportunities and advocacy for artists across the Mimbres Valley region.
