About us

Welcome to Space 21

When Cosecha closed its doors, a spark ignited in San Nicolas. Out of that moment, Space21.art was born in 2023—an inspired new chapter led by ArtisA (Art is Aruba) to keep Aruba’s creative heartbeat alive. What started as a rescue mission for displaced artisans quickly evolved into a thriving cultural hub where craft, design, and purpose collide.

Located in the soul of San Nicolas, Space21.art celebrates heritage and innovation in one breath—a living showcase of how artistry can honor the past while shaping the future.

The Mission

Space21.art isn’t just a gallery. It’s a creative movement, a community, and a launchpad for Aruban talent.

We exist to:

  • Empower makers and artists by giving their work global visibility and local pride.
  •  Preserve culture through craftsmanship that keeps tradition alive while embracing experimentation.
  •  Energize Aruba’s creative economy by turning artistry into sustainable opportunity.
  • Connect people—through workshops, collaboration, and the pure joy of making something by hand.

This is more than representation. It’s reinvention.
