RE-OPENING ANNOUNCEMENT
Crank up the band, light the sparkles and get your masks and sanitizer ready, we’re re-opening!
At ACAC, we are rolling back any commitments to an opening date. My top priority is keeping our staff and supporters safe. As much as we miss you all and would love to throw open our doors, there is simply no level of health risk that I find an acceptable trade for admission. Until we are sure that we can open safely while protecting our front of line staff and patrons, we won’t make a return announcement.
POSTCARDS FROM QUARANTINE
Mobile, AL: Alabama Contemporary Art Center is shifting the way we connect through the arts in this time of social distancing. With mass cancellations and our doors closed we’ve had to rethink how we fulfill our mission, and figure out new ways to meet the community where they are. We are starting by re-allocating funds for small commissions of artwork to send to people who need a little light in their life right now.
It’s with a heavy heart that we are announcing, as of today, that our main galleries will be closed to the public with a tentative plan to re-open April 6th. Additionally, we are committing 60% of all new reciprocal memberships to relief for service industry folks until April 6th.
