La Tienda Folk Art Gallery

Though La Tienda does not have a store we, the staff, still celebrate Dia de Los Mu***os. These photos were taken in Loreto, Mexico.

We are saddened to share the news of the passing of Leslie Grace, founder of La Tienda/Folk Art Gallery. She was a pioneer in the retail world bringing together imported and American crafts in one space. She educated and expanded the view of many people in Seattle and all over the world.
