SOUTH TUCSON, Ariz. — The Galeria Mitotera is a home for local artists in and around South Tucson. It provides a safe space for artists to grow as they display the art.
Mel Dominguez’s art career made strides after his partnership with the Tucson Tamale Co. His art was featured in its own section in the original location of the restaurant until it closed in 2018. He and his wife decided that in his next journey with Galeria Mitotera, it would be centered around promoting a space for others to learn and grow.
“I had a regular job, until SB1070 came up and it gave the opportunity to police officers where if you look like me, they were able to stop us and ask for papers, and because of that, I was moved back into being a community artist,” said Dominguez. “We really focus on having artists that reflect our community, which here in the city of South Tucson is indigenous and Chicano and Mexican community here,” said Melissa Brown Dominguez.
