As the largest contemporary art center in Alabama, we fill a big gap in the creative ecosystem of the Deep South. We fill that gap through actively creating opportunities and paying artists to create work relevant to the world we live in. Because we don’t keep what we pay for (like in a museum with a permanent collection), we rely heavily on the continued support of foundations and individuals like yourself to help pay it forward. Together we are funding the creative ecology and livability of our place; we are sparking new ideas, lifting up unheard voices, and creating space for courageous and meaningful conversations. Your generosity helps us further our mission, and your support extends well beyond our doors. Consider donating online today or contact us for more details.
Becoming a part of our Donor base is the best way to invest in our creative community while getting some serious perks in rental and education discounts. Whether you’re a small business or a big family in need of a gathering place, we are here for a long-term relationship.
