Veronica "Fox" Grijalva

In order to provide opportunities for local artists, I created the Desert Gems Coloring Gallery - a coloring book that included original drawings by local artists, including myself. 

From there, I moved on to create events for local talents by organizing small art markets, art showcases, and a variety of social events - always with the intent to allow talents to best show off what they do.

In 2021, I started managing a space which hosted 20+ artist studios and 5,000 sq ft gallery, and eventually became the co-owner. With the help of my associates, we held a different social, art event every single weekend. From poetry and art showcases to independent film showings, to theater plays.
