The Eyes Gallery

327 South St, Philadelphia, PA 19147

Sparked by the Zagar’s love for Latin American folk art, Isaiah and Julia Zagar, mosaic artists and urban pioneers, moved to Lower South Philadelphia, after serving in the Peace Corps as craft developers to the Ayamara and Inca people of the Andes mountains in Peru. They renovated a vacant building on South Street to live in and work from. That building came to be the Eye’s Gallery. Artistically, Isaiah shifted from painting to making mosaics and his work can be seen not only all around South Street and Philadelphia but on the ceilings, walls and floors of Eye’s Gallery.
