About the Contemporary Arts Center

For more than 65 years, the Contemporary Arts Center (CAC) has been a forum for progressive art and ideas serving the city of Cincinnati and the region. Founded in 1939 as the Modern Art Society by three visionary local women, the CAC was one of the first institutions in the United States dedicated to exhibiting contemporary art.
