San Antonio gallery Sala Diaz earns hefty grant from Milwaukee's Ruth Foundation for the Arts
Founded in 1995 by San Antonio native Alejandro Diaz, Sala Diaz is a grassroots gallery with a reputation that extends far beyond its humble footprint — a slightly rough-around-the-edges duplex in Southtown. Arriving on the local scene the same year as Artpace inaugurated its renowned International Artist-in-Residence program, Sala Diaz came of age with late local legend Chuck Ramirez as its next-door neighbor — a fairy godmother of sorts who threw many an impromptu celebration in the gallery’s rustic yet incredibly welcoming backyard.
