COMMUNITY CENTER FOR THE ARTS

Campus Exhibitions adds visual vibrancy to The Center by supporting and showcasing a diverse group of artists bringing life to our Center spaces. In the last year, The Center presented over 30 exhibitions in our spaces including juried Center Theater Gallery art exhibitions, youth art displayed in our education pavilion, sculptures on The Center Sculpture Pad, various local artist’s work in our main office and exhibitions through the Art & Healing program. Artist talks, opening receptions and special workshops are scheduled throughout the year and are included in The Center's calendar of events.

In 2017, The Center announced the creation of an exciting initiative, Creative in Residence. This residency opportunity will provide support and space for guests to work at The Center along with the artistic community that will highlight an interdisciplinary process and result in an impactful and inspiring end product. Selection for the Creative in Residence opportunity is by invitation from The Center's Creative in Residence committee consisting of Center Board members, community members and Center staff.

The Center Collaborations Program supports outstanding programming on our campus based on creative merit, shared audiences, resources and risk.
