BAC is a hub for artistic exploration and community building that champions Bay Area artists and curators. Located in Live Oak Park in North Berkeley, we make contemporary art approachable at an intimate scale while serving diverse communities through exhibitions and artist-conceived events, workshops, and programs for youth. Since 1967, BAC has exhibited work by important local figures such as ROBERT BECHTLE, ENRIQUE CHAGOYA, BILL FONTANA, TARANEH HEMAMI, MILDRED HOWARD, HUNG LIU, JIM MELCHERT, CHIURA OBATA, SONYA RAPOPORT, KATHERINE SHERWOOD, PETER VOULKOS, and CARRIE MAE WEEMS, among many others.
