At The Groove, our motto is "Art for Everyone." We take pride in our inclusive gallery approach—while our shows are juried, we strive to feature a wide variety of artists and art forms that reflect the richness of New Mexico’s creative community. Our large gallery space can accommodate 70+ pieces, all by New Mexico artists.

30% of all sales are retained by The Groove to fund community outreach and arts programming throughout Albuquerque. We maintain a strict policy against AI-generated work and any content deemed pornographic by the jury.

In The Groove is a showcase of creativity from within our own community—featuring artwork by Groove students, teachers, and affiliated artists.

This exhibition highlights the talent, experimentation, and artistic growth happening right here at The Groove Artspace.

All mediums and styles are welcome. Whether you’re just getting started or have been making art for years, we invite you to share your voice and be part of the groove.

Submit your work and celebrate our creative community!
