Located on Cathedral Square in the heart of Mobile’s historic downtown district, Alabama Contemporary Art Center is a critically important site for the production and discussion of experimental contemporary art in the Gulf Coast region. The only institution of its kind within 150 miles, it encourages artists to cultivate radical thought and disruptive approaches to art making. It serves its community by originating ten to twelve exhibitions a year, offering public programming, adult and children’s education, and outreach programming.

“The Warhol Foundation aims to support the full range of artistic activity in America—from exhibitions at major museums to neighborhood projects by artist collectives. Arts writers, through the range and specialization of their individual interests, touch upon all of this activity—illuminating and interrogating it and bringing it into conversation with the public. Support for artists is not complete without support for the circulation and serious consideration of their ideas. The Arts Writers Grant program keeps artists at the center of cultural dialogue and debate—in our opinion, right where they belong.”
