Mission Statement

The CAC is a multi-disciplinary arts center, financially stable and professionally managed, which is dedicated to the presentation, production and promotion of art of our time. It accomplished these by organizing curated exhibitions, performances and programs; enlarging audiences; and encouraging collaboration among diverse artists, institutions, communities and supporters.

Description

Since 1976, the Contemporary Arts Center has been home to artistsâ bold experiments in painting, theater, photography, performance art, dance, music, video, education, and sculpture. Situated at the gateway to New Orleansâ Downtown Arts District, our award-winning building houses 10,000 square feet of gallery space dedicated to rotating exhibitions throughout the year. Additionally, the CAC and local performers stage several dozen plays, dance events, music concerts and performances in our two theaters. In our Rehearsal Hall and Art Lab, Artists For a Day workshops introduce young minds to artful excitement. Renovated in 1990, the CACâ s building mixes the timelessness of New Orleansâ historic architecture with contemporary materials, open spaces and site-specific art works created by Louisiana artists. You'll find an electrifying atmosphere for viewing, enjoying, studying, and debating art.
