About Vougler Arts

Vougler Arts is an independent, artist-led platform rooted in Tucson, Arizona. We publish VOUGLER ARTS MAGAZINE and organize exhibitions, grants, and creative collaborations that highlight the raw, powerful, and deeply personal voices of our local and cross-border communities.

We believe that art is not just decoration - it’s documentation, disruption, and declaration. That’s why we center artists who reflect the complexity of identity, migration, healing, memory, and land. From first-time creators to seasoned visionaries, every contributor we work with brings a story worth holding.

Since our launch, we’ve worked with over 40 artists and creatives across mediums including painting, photography, jewelry, poetry, performance, and installation. Our quarterly publication features 10+ artist spreads per issue, along with essays, local collaborations, and a sponsored mini-grant program funded entirely by our community.

Vougler Arts is run by one person with the heart of a full team. Every page, event, grant, and campaign is fueled by dedication, mutual respect, and a love for what art can do when it’s given space to breathe and speak.

We’re here to build a new kind of archive - honest, grounded, and vibrant. And we’re just getting started.
