Public Programs

Using our exhibitions as a springboard, Alabama Contemporary hosts performances, activities, talks and public conversations throughout the year. Whether it’s a through a dance party or a panel discussion, we are interested in squeezing the most meaning in art (and life) as possible. Plus public programs are always free or discounted for members!

Alabama Contemporary is committed to collaborating with cultural, educational and civic partners as a means to promote community engagement, and encourages partner participation in public programs. If you or your organization have a program idea that is educational at heart and you believe ACAC would be a good fit to help make it happen, please review our Program Policy & Procedure then reach out to info@alabamacontemporary.org.
