The Central Tucson Gallery Association usually hosts these art shows/receptions on the first Saturday of each month, so enjoy lots of visual art in Tucson. And check out each art gallery’s websites for lovely photos of their special art.

Conrad Wilde Gallery was “robbed by unknown person(s) between the dates of 3/27-3/29/10. The major loss was 13 original works of art by 10 artists as well as all of the gallery’s electronic equipment. This is a locally owned small business that is well regarded in service to the community. The loss of these artworks is devastating to the gallery and to the individual artists whose works were taken.

A reward is offered to anyone with information leading to the safe return of these artworks. Phone 520-820-6410. No questions will be asked.”

For photos of the stolen paintings, log onto www.conradwildegallery.com/returnthepaintings.html

I picked up the flyer about this stolen artwork at a reception at this gallery (439 E. 6th St., #171) last night. If you know anything about these stolen paintings, please contact the gallery. 3 paintings have been recovered.

Repeat, no questions will be asked. They just want the artwork back.
