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.

Luminous is a celebration of the versatility and beauty of glass art. We welcome all forms (2-D and 3-D) of glass-based creations that illuminate the unique qualities of glass.

As an inclusive arts space, we value diverse perspectives and aim to highlight high-quality, innovative art that pushes the boundaries of glass.

Submit your work now and let your art shine in LUMINOUS: Glass Art at The Groove.

All the art shows at The Groove are juried by established artists. The Groove will reserve 30% of sales revenue. No AI nor pornography will be accepted for exhibition.
