The Paper Heart Arts Venue. A downtown Phoenix arts destination catering to visual art, music, dance, theater, spoken word/poetry, performance, video/film and comedy. Established in the year 2000 as an .. gallery and a means for local, national and international artists to gain exposure and sell work.
In 2001, The Paper Heart took a leap and opened a 2000 sq. ft. space in downtown Phoenix at 5th Avenue and Van Buren Street. Featuring local artists, juice bar and espresso cart (now known as The Trunk Space) it grew to be a well known location for local talent. One of few to have regular weekly hours and the inclusion of events, (music, poetry, theater, etc.), created consistent traffic and support to local artists. Gaining success over a 4 year span as an alternative arts venue.
Beginning the year 2004, another move was made to its current location, 750 NW Grand Avenue (corner of Grand Avenue and Polk Street), this 8900 sq. ft. facility has incorporated diverse weekly events, month long gallery exhibitions and much more. Having 300 sq. ft. of exhibition space, a 1000 sq. ft. artists studio (on the 2nd floor) and a 3000 sq. ft. performance space including an eclectic mix of unique beers and fine wine.
Thank-you for supporting local arts and artists,
