Visual Arts Center at The University of Texas at Austin

The Visual Arts Center (VAC) is an artist-driven gallery space committed to supporting process-oriented work and providing a platform for emerging artists, curators, and educators to experiment, test ideas, and take risks. We aim to spark generative conversations about art and contemporary society through our exhibitions and public programs. As an experiential learning environment dedicated to confronting the most pressing issues of our time, we invite our community of artists, students, scholars, and audiences of all ages to engage in discourses on race, class, gender, and culture. Located on campus at The University of Texas at Austin, the VAC is open to the public and is always free.
