Access Gallery
Access Gallery is an inclusive nonprofit organization that engages the community by opening doors to creative, educational and economic opportunities for people with disabilities to access, experience and benefit from the arts.
People with disabilities experience a 70% unemployment rate and artists with disabilities are no exception. Access Gallery employs a social enterprise model to focus on creativity as an asset rather than disability as a deficit. We advance our mission in three ways:
- Access Gallery, a professional gallery space located in the heart of the Arts District on Santa Fe featuring and selling the work of local and national artists with disabilities. District.
- Access Studio, an inclusive, free community studio where artists build their skill sets across a variety of visual arts mediums.
- Access Creative Services, a social enterprise that provides a wide range of services including but not limited to graphic design services, corporate art commissions, murals among others.
We believe art has the power to bring people together, breaking down social barriers and open inclusive spaces for our community to connect with and learn from each other.
