Best Small Gallery for Art Openings

Galleria La Sirena

This is Tucson's most exciting small gallery. Art opening parties feature carefully collected works set to a theme, such as last year's show in honor of Frida Kahlo that coincided with the premiere of the movie about her. There was also a terrific political art show last winter. Gallery owner Sherry Teachnor, an attorney and former Peace Corps volunteer, wants everyone to be able to buy art for their home or office. Her experience in the Caribbean allows her to obtain pieces that are both exotic and moderately priced. At her openings, she ends up with a kaleidoscope of colors more fun than cotton candy at the circus. Whether its gorgeous Mexican sculptures or beautiful Haitian handbags, there's something for everyone at Galleria La Sirena.
