ABOUT THE CENTER
The mission of the Center for Contemporary Arts is to encourage, empower and inspire artists, children and the community through the arts.
The Center for Contemporary Arts, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation, was founded in 1989 with the support of the Abilene Cultural Affairs Council to provide enriching and educational experiences for the region’s communities through the promotion and support of artists.
The Center serves more than 28,000 people from the greater Abilene area through our three programs: ArtReach, ArtWalk and our exhibits.
ArtReach, which includes our ArtHEALs curriculum, is our arts education and outreach initiative. Under the ArtReach umbrella, we offer art outreach to military veterans, incarcerated youth, children in after-school programs, adults with disabilities, and others.
ArtWalk is a monthly celebration of arts in Abilene’s downtown cultural district. This event attracts more than 100 businesses and organizations annually and draws 500-1,400 people downtown each month.
We offer between 20-30 exhibits each year in our four galleries. These exhibits offer local artists an opportunity to display their work, and they also attract thousands of people downtown each year.
HOW TO APPLY: Qualified and interested candidates please send resume/CV, cover letter, and references to [email protected].
TAM is for Museums, art centers, historic houses and sites, children's museums, community cultural centers, zoos, science centers, university galleries, any institution, especially in Texas, that exist to exhibit and interpret the historic, cultural, artistic, ethnic, or scientific heritage of humankind.
