Santa Ana is the birthplace of many amazing and talented artists. It's about time we had a central makerspace, a creative hub where artists, young and old, can gather and create. Thanks to the leadership of Yenny Bernal, we have that space. Located at the MainPlace Mall is the dazzling Galeria of Imagination. Artwork from local and our youth is showcased in this intimate gallery located at the end of the mall near Things Remembered and Macy's. The community is welcome to take a class, create art, or even purchase a piece for their home decor.

As we entered the doors, we were impressed with the atmosphere and creative vibe of this space.My son, who almost gave up on art during quarantine, truly found his joy at The Galeria of Imagination. Yenny and Jessica were very welcoming and gave us a little tour of the gallery and their plans for this space. Their next goal is to have more Santa Ana youth contribute in order to transform The Galeria of Imagination into the heart and soul core for the future generation of artists.
