THE TULAROSA BASIN GALLERY HISTORY The Gallery first opened its doors to the public on Saturday, October 25th, 2014. It currently displays the work of 35 photographers. The mandate requires that all the photographers reside in New Mexico at least part of the year and all the photos were taken in New Mexico, a one-stop overview of the Land of Enchantment.The two-story gallery building was constructed as a hardware store in 1917, only five years after New Mexico became a State. It currently occupies 7,500 sq. ft. of exhibit space make in the largest photographic gallery in New Mexico. Plans to expand to 15,000 sq. ft. when it develops its lower level into additional unique display area. The building, located on historic 12th street, once the center of commerce, is now home to a thriving arts community featuring several galleys and studios.
We had heard that this gallery was worth a stop, and we were not disappointed. They represent a lot of really wonderful photographers- some of the best in the Southwest- and the photos on display are extraordinary. They have all the recent winners of New Mexico Magazine photo contests, and it's great to see them all in one place. All the photos are for sale, as well as a number of good books. We loved the gallery and wish we had had more time to spend there.
