Phoenix Fall Space is the gallery and studio of Denise L. Fleisch and Jimi Girdner. We are artists living and working in Phoenix, AZ.  We are members of Artlink of Arizona and the Grand Avenue Merchants Association.

Having our gallery in the La Melgosa building here on Grand Avenue has given us a chance to be in a creative atmosphere, and to really expand on our own work as well as collaborating with other artists on projects.

It has been a long journey for us to get here. And now that it has happened. We welcome you to our little (Big) world of fine Art.

Our gallery is warm and inviting and the place to be on First and Third Fridays.  We want to see our art through your eyes.  We want to feel your emotion when you walk in to our gallery space.  We want you to be part of our journey.

Studio 8 is a photography studio and co-op located in the Grand Avenue arts district in downtown Phoenix. Our studio is one of several industrial art spaces in the historic Bragg’s Pie Factory building on Grand. We are dedicated to the professional development and success of our fellow photographers and artists and as such, have established a collective to allow emerging photographers the use of a professional studio at an affordable price point.

The current principal photographers at the studio are Nicolle Clemetson and Andrew Urban. Their different styles and philosophies illustrate the strength of diverse elements joining together for a common purpose. That is ultimately the aim and purpose for the collective, because when we all work together, we all benefit.

This 1905 house in the Oakland-University Park neighborhood was built of cast concrete blocks, fabricated from molds to resemble quarry stones.  It was converted to an art studio and photography gallery in 2005. The current tenants, Michelle and Melanie Craven, contributed substantial sweat equity toward the renovation of the building by stripping and refurbishing the hardwood floors, installing slate flooring in the rear of the gallery, and installing attractive desert landscaping in the previously all dirt yard.

Today Tilt Gallery is a contemporary fine art gallery specializing in historical to alternative photographic processes and mixed media projects. The gallery features local, national and international works by emerging and established artist.

Tilt Gallery will be the first stop on the historic/adaptive-reuse tour during the festival.
