  • 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.

  • Our March exhibition, Piece/Peace, showcases mosaic artwork in celebration of Mosaic Month and in coordination with the CMA2 Mosaic Conference in Albuquerque. The show brings together diverse interpretations of peace through the art of pieces, highlighting the expressive power of mosaics in all forms and sizes.
