AZUCARERA is an artist run gallery in the historic Sugar Hill neighborhood in Harlem, NYC. Exhibits at AZUCARERA emphasize the creative work of new and emerging artists who identify as women of color, indigenous, LGBTQ/Two Spirit, working class, and/or feminist, as well as allies. AZUCARERA is a transnational, multigenerational space that recognizes and celebrates the artistic work that energizes and sustains our diverse communities. The gallaery was opened in June 2009 by NYC-based Chicana artist and teacher Nova Gutierrez.
