This is an excellent small gallery near the central part of San Jose that specializes in indigenous and folkloric art of Costa Rica that one seldom sees in the stores. There are paintings from many small isolated farming communities, many painted by women on serving platters and skillets, as well as masks in clay, metal, wood and papier mache and glass. The items are reasonably priced and the owner, Aisling French, is very pleased to describe and tell the background of all the items in his gallery. You can also see the items in gallery on his website: www.galerianamu.com. Open 9:30am-6:30pm Monday-Saturday, phone: (506) 256-3412
