SOUTH SIDE COMMUNITY ART CENTER

SSCAC is the only African American art center of its kind opened under the WPA to remain continuously open in its original building. The center has an extensive permanent collection, including pieces from its founding artists, and regularly acquires new pieces. It continues to evolve, featuring works from emerging artists, virtual shows and tours, classes, events and more. The Artists' and Models' Ball remains a vital annual event. SSCAC's heart beats strongly after 80 years, as the center continues to inspire and connect with community members for the love of art - celebrating its legacy and embracing its future.
