Join Art Councils

	The Contemporary Art Council has been supporting cutting-edge art in the Northwest for more than forty years.

The council presents leading and emerging contemporary artists, curators, collectors and critics who inspire and educate both the art community and the general public.

Programming is increasingly directed towards identifying and examining the art and ideas of our time. Throughout its history the CAC has presented outstanding lectures by artists, art critics, curators and architects, including John Baldessari, Chuck Close, Lucy Lippard, Frank Gehry, Linda Nochlin, Petah Coyne, Allison Saar and Andre Serrano. Exhibition previews, gallery talks, music and dance performances and social events are among the many activities council members enjoy.

Art Council members must be SAM members. To sign up for membership online, visit our membership page.
