The historic adobe Millet House, located in Mesa, Arizona, holds an art gallery, a community gathering space, and a mobile library. Members of the Millet House Art Collective focus on a variety of types of art, from acrylic painting through carved indigenous masks through beaded bracelets, but much of our art has a Southwestern flavor.

The Millet House has always served homeless/formerly homeless people, people with disabilities, and survivors of domestic abuse and violence, with outreach to shelters and to individuals through a peer mentoring program. Most members of the Millet House Art Collective come to us from such situations.

We have been joined by a few established artists who have contributed one or more works to the gallery in order to underscore the fact that our artists are equally worthy in vision and talent. We avoid labeling individuals, but if you wish to know the story behind an individual work, we will share what the artist wishes to share.

Know that most of the money you spend here goes directly to the artists; a small percentage supports the Millet House and its outreach programs. That percentage is on a sliding scale and in the case of an artist who is currently homeless or in a shelter, all of the money goes to the artist.

That said, the Millet House does seek funding, as we approach a critical time in which we must find support, or be wildly successful with sales, or both. If you are aware of funding opportunities, please do let us know. Further, your purchases certainly will help us continue our work along with providing income, well-deserved respect and the promise of a better life to our artists - who are on their way up - so please let your networks know about us as the holidays approach!

And thank you!
