Currently On View

Our three main galleries exhibit contemporary artworks by some of the most respected artists of our time. Group shows, solo artist exhibitions and retrospectives are juried by our exhibitions' committee, which includes exhibiting artists, curators, arts instructors and gallerists. The second-floor Studio Gallery features exhibitions of artists currently working and studying in our various classes.

In an effort to involve the community, we also exhibit artwork from community partners and school children and commission a site-specific sculpture on the front lawn every year.

Admission to our galleries is free and open to the public seven days a week. We offer docent led tours for individuals or groups, exhibition publications, exhibiting artists’ talks, interviews with curators and exhibition opening receptions.

Spring for Art: Evanston Art Center Benefit

Saturday, May 19 from 6:30pm to 11:00pm. Join us for an evening of food, wine, fun, and ART. Benefit tickets are $100 per person and $65 if you are 35 years old and under. All proceeds benefit the Evanston Art Center's exhibition, scholarship and outreach programs.

Our 2011-2012 Sculpture on the Grounds project, “Elevated” conceptually addresses the provocative dialogue between nature and built space that the Evanston Art Center’s ivy-covered building has with Lake Michigan. Visually, with its girder-like supports and elevated mass, the work powerfully references Chicagoland’s most iconic built structures, the “El”. Artist Gary Orlinsky will install "Elevated" the week of July 11 with an opening reception scheduled for Sunday, July 17. We hope you'll stop by to meet Orlinsky while he is on site.
