Programs

Public Programs

Using our exhibitions as a springboard, Alabama Contemporary hosts performances, activities, talks and public conversations throughout the year.

ACAC SATELLITE

𝘈𝘊𝘈𝘊 𝘚𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘦 will function as short term office space for our staff while our main galleries at 301 Conti Street undergo redevelopment, and long term as a collaborative community studio space that houses ACAC’s Artist in Residence program, education programs, and pop up exhibitions.

Adult Education

Alabama Contemporary offers classes and workshops for adults of all skill levels. Studio art classes are led by professional artists and experienced educators.

Black Life Arts and Culture Coalition

The Black Life Arts and Culture Coalition (BLACC) is an independent committee working under the umbrella of the Alabama Contemporary Art Center.

Artist In Residence

Alabama Contemporary’s residency program is designed so that the artist may grow their practice and provide space to experiment outside their typical work. In its second iteration, the program offers free studio space and use of the facilities to one artist per two-year period, culminating in an exhibition of their work at the end of the residency.
