I love this place! They have wonderful vintage, antique and new things from all over Mexico and South America and the inventory seems to change frequently. The owners are helpful and very friendly but i have to admit my faves are the two dogs that sleep under the owners desk!

This is my happy place. You are free to shop or just look without be bothered. Beautiful displays, friendly staff. I come to forget about what is going on in the world but always leave with something.

Amazing place! James and Kevin have done a phenomenal job curating their spectacular collection of treasures for sale. Incredible depth and breath of art collectibles is the phrase that first comes to mind. No doubt others have already provided details on their wares. Suffice it to say that whatever piece of Mexican period/collectible folk to modern piece of art, furniture, or decorative item you are looking for can be found at Arte de la Vida. And the neatest of all is that just about every piece they have for sale probably has an interesting story to accompany it. Oh, and before I forget: they do amazing charitable work for our community through their shop.

We throughly enjoyed our browsing at this great shop. Beautiful pieces and great colors! Shop is very clean and organized! Not a good place for small children that dont stay in hand. Too many things even I wanted to touch!! Staff was delightful. We will be back to visit!!

This is an amazing store with beautiful things and knowledgeable owners. Its like being able to buy things from a museum but with down-to-earth prices. There is a lot of choice, a lot of variety and much of the artwork are rare and vintage one-of-a-kind pieces. It is truly a treasure !

This store should be on the MUST-VISIT destiny for Mexican vintage art here in Arizona! Owners, Kevin and James and their 2 four legged furry friends will greet you with a wealth of knowledge. They received a surprise visit from two of the Antique Road Show appraisers on June 4, 2015, the day before the show was filmed at the Tucson Convention Center. The appraisers were blown away at their collection in the store!!! Kevin and James are currently expanding their store...2 more rooms. I cant wait to see the completion! Thank you Kevin and James for adding more beauty to Tucson. Diana

Check Store Website or Facebook Page for seasonal Hours!Of Course Im going to shower my shop with love, Just a few gentle pointers before coming on down to our beloved store. Arte de la Vida is NOT a Thrift Shop, it is mainly priced Mid to High Antique Retail, with many items affordable under $20. A Great Selection of Vintage Pottery, Textiles, Tin, Glass and Folk Art. Plus Furniture too!, but good luck seeing it, as we have packed our shop to the rafters with treasures from long ago. Nearly every flat inch of the shop is covered.You will NOT find American Indian, Americana or Dutch Pennsylvania Painted Objects...this is A Mexican Folk Shop that specializes in what the shops across the Border did during their heyday, from the 1940s thru the 1980s. This is Stuff from Old Mexico and we love and collect it ourselves! Please ask questions, please understand we are Gringos. Amigos to many of our customers. We have the utmost respect and knowledge for what we sell. We do this because we LOVE it!
