Blue Rain Gallery - Our Story
Blue Rain Gallery’s journey began in 1993, founded with a vision to redefine how fine art is experienced and collected. What started as a small, regional gallery in Taos, NM soon expanded into one of the most recognized fine art galleries in the Southwest. Founded by Leroy Garcia, Blue Rain Gallery was built on a vision of blending heritage with contemporary artistic innovation. From its roots in Native American pottery to its evolution as a leader in Studio Glass, bronze sculpture, and contemporary Southwestern art, the gallery has continuously redefined fine art collecting.
Today, Blue Rain Gallery operates from two locations: Santa Fe Railyard, NM – A premier art destination in the heart of Santa Fe. Downtown Durango, CO – A dynamic space for art collectors in the Four Corners region.
