About the CAC
The CAC is a multi-disciplinary arts center that is dedicated to the presentation, production and promotion of the art of our time. The CAC was formed in the fall of 1976 as an artist-run, artist-driven community organization. Throughout the CAC’s 35 years, the center has remained active in the visual and performing arts and arts education communities, continuing to represent an era of creative freedom and multi-disciplinary expression. Currently dedicating two floors—about 10,000 square feet of gallery space—of the 4-story building to rotating exhibitions throughout the year, the CAC is home to artists’ bold experiments in painting, theater, photography, performance art, dance, music, video, education, and sculpture. The CAC’s education department engages over 10,000 children and adults annually. The CAC’s significance and role in the cultural community of New Orleans has and always will be cemented in its broad community-based programs and initiatives.
