& Gallery

Sad to say goodbye, & Gallery has officially closed. For incredible Tucson art, visit The Tucson Gallery on GayTucson!

& Gallery is owned and overseen by East Sleep Work and is an art gallery unlike any other in Tucson. While many galleries here focus on Southwest fine art & Gallery takes an entirely different approach. Here you will find zines, sequential art, low brow art, anime, and so much more. They showcase local Arizona artists and give them a place to shine that’s off the beaten path.

A New Beginning

& Gallery Interior
& Gallery Interior

In 2019 the &G moved from its small space at Grand and Stone to 4th avenue, the hub of downtown Tucson. Since its grand reopening, the gallery has put on numerous exhibitions showcasing local talent and forward-thinking artists. Its mission is to not only lift up locals but offer them a safe space to showcase their art. Tucson itself is touted as a queer-inclusive city but it’s important to & Gallery to actually take action and do the work. While all are welcome only those with good intentions get to stay.

Cynthia Naugle is the gallery manager, event coordinator, and social media maven. Through her connections in the community, she continues to put on exciting events and brings new opportunities to artists who formally only had an online audience.

“One of our big missions here is to amplify artists. We want to make sure we’re taking our artists to the next level. I love our group shows and we can do them all the time but if we’re not pushing you to be better, for each piece to be better… well we’ve just got to have that growth.” -Cynthia Naugle

Aside from regular group shows and exhibitions, this gallery offers tons of merchandise. From original artwork to prints and stickers there’s something for everyone at reasonable prices. Print and photography services are also available and if they can’t do it they will point you to the people who can.

Networking nights are something new &G is trying out. Each meetup will have a theme, such as musicians or digital artists but all are welcome to attend. Getting the right information and tools to artists is just as important as getting the art made. The gallery is building a beautiful artists community here in Tucson and everyone should drop in and check them out.

Blank Page Consulting

I am a “returner.” Born and raised in New York City, I moved to Tucson in the early 90s. I left to be closer to the family for support after a divorce. When I lived here, I owned a communications firm, Veritas Communications, and was very involved in the small business community. 19 years later, I am back (with my wife) and delighted to be home! Tucson is a city that feels like a personal treasure that only a few can appreciate. Every day I am more inspired by the miracle of this land.

Kim Green of Blank Page Consulting

I am a credentialed life coach and love working with people who are ready for transformation in their lives. As an author, ghostwriter, award-winning copywriter, and blogger, I realized that my true passion is supporting people in making their dreams come true. My company is Blank Page Consulting. My coaching programs are rigorous, often emotional, and extremely effective. I, too, have had my share of loss, grief, and disappointments and out of it came unthinkable growth.

My work supports people in their growth, whether it is learning to speak their truth, learning how to navigate a challenging world as well as finding joy when it seems scarce.

For writers, I have designed an experience that is nurturing, supportive, and gets the results that writers desire…to get to The End. For Life Coaching clients, we will identify buried truths and help you to find your inner strength to conquer that which hinders your action and joy. Established weekly meetings and assignments ensure that all clients stay on track. For writers, group coaching is also available with a new group starting January 10th for 10 weeks. (5 places left)

Call for a 30-minute free consultation and get ready to be transformed.

Reviews

“Kim pushed me to explore my own identity, my identity as a writer, and the stories I believed most needed to be told.  She inspired a passion in me for writing that I didn’t think was possible.  I highly recommend that writers – new and seasoned – partner up with Kim to benefit from the treasure trove of resources she has to offer.” – S. Kumar

“Kim Green has been a savior, a north star, and a friend through the process of writing my very first book. Meeting with Kim every single week has given me structure, helped me to see new perspectives, and support me in finding my voice. She encourages me when I feel like I can’t go any further. She’s there to remind me that what I’m doing is important to the world and she’s been someone to rely on as I do this important life work. I will be eternally grateful to Kim for her patience, her humor, and her mind.” – A. Arthur

Wellness Awaits with Dr. Andrew Watley — LGBTQ+ & BIPOC-Affirming Wellness Coaching in Tucson (Online)

Online sessions • Individuals, couples & families • Tucson-based

No pressure—let’s see if we’re a fit.

Tucson-Based, Identity-Affirming Wellness Coaching

Dr. Andrew Watley - Wellness Coach
Dr. Andrew Watley – Wellness Coach

Dr. Andrew Watley helps you find clarity and confidence with culturally responsive, LGBTQ+ & BIPOC-affirming coaching—online and flexible.

I’m Dr. Andrew Watley, a proud Tucson transplant originally from New Orleans, Louisiana. For the past decade, I’ve worked in the mental health field, first as a licensed therapist and now as a wellness coach. I founded Wellness Awaits when I decided to step away from the formalities of traditional therapy to create a space where I could show up as my most authentic self and help others do the same. My motto? No masks allowed!

As a Black and gay man, I bring both personal insight and professional experience to the table when working with clients navigating the intersections of identity, culture, and wellness. Representation matters, and my goal is to ensure that the mental health and wellness needs of the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities are seen, heard, and supported.

I offer online coaching for individuals, couples, and families. While I specialize in BIPOC and Queer issues, Wellness Awaits is open to anyone seeking clarity, confidence, and personal growth, from young adults to elders.

Tucson has quickly felt like home to me. Much like New Orleans, it’s a vibrant melting pot of cultures, traditions, and creativity. Its openness to holistic health and healing is what first drew me here and it’s what continues to inspire me to stay and serve this incredible community.
