About the Host

The words "Raices," meaning roots, and "Taller," meaning workshop, combine two separate yet very compatible impulses that led to the founding of the Raices Taller 222 organization. The two founding members, Juan Enriquez and Jorge Arteaga, needed a studio space to pursue their work and exhibit. They found a space at 222 E. 6th St. in Tucson, which was conveniently attached to a storefront gallery. For more information, visit raicestaller222.com.

The Raices Taller 222 Gallery is a collective gallery that strives to encourage community support. Built upon its members' trust and mutual respect, its primary goal is to educate and promote the arts experience to segments of the population that might not otherwise have access to it through other, more traditional methods.
