Join Sala Diaz for The Compound House Series #1 featuring live music from singer-songwriter Gus Kelley. This fundraiser will take place in the bones of our Compound House, and all proceeds will directly benefit the growth of Sala Diaz. Snacks and refreshments will be provided.

This summer, an anonymous donor purchased and gifted Sala Diaz the property and house next to our gallery. The building came to us with a new roof, new foundation, and has working wiring and plumbing, along with an AHAC system. The building, what we are calling the Compound House, is gutted down to the studs and there is still a long way to go, but once finished we will be able to use the space for short-term rentals. The income we receive from rentals will support the exhibitions at Sala Diaz and residency at Casa Chuck, enabling us to continue to support contemporary artists and writers.
