Rochester Contemporary Art Center, Art gallery in Rochester, United States
Rochester Contemporary Art Center is a nonprofit exhibition space that presents rotating shows of contemporary works by regional and national artists throughout the year. The venue offers artists various ways to display their work and engage with the local art audience.
Founded in 1977 by a group of artists, the center was established to promote contemporary art in the region. Since then, it has become an important gathering point for the art community in upstate New York.
The center hosts an annual 6x6 exhibition where artists submit square artworks of identical dimensions. This event draws participants from all skill levels and creates a space where both established and emerging creators are shown side by side.
The space is open during regular hours and welcomes artists to submit work for various exhibitions. Membership options are available, providing access to special events and exhibition opportunities.
In the 6x6 exhibition, artist identity remains anonymous until after purchase, with each work sold at the same price. This approach creates a surprisingly level playing field where visitors choose based solely on the artwork itself.
