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 Members Gallery features exhibitions of our current students' work.
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.

"Elevated" by Gary Orlinsky
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.
