Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, Contemporary art gallery in West Midtown, Atlanta, United States

Atlanta Contemporary is a non-collecting art center in a 35,000-square-foot former warehouse complex on Means Street in West Midtown, near the Georgia Tech campus. Its low white brick entrance carries large black letters reading "Atlanta Contemporary Art", with a recessed porch on three square white columns and glass double doors. Inside are multiple exhibition spaces and subsidized studios for local artists.

Founded in 1973 by Atlanta photographers as Nexus, a storefront cooperative gallery funded by member dues and run by volunteers. It leased an old elementary school in 1976, became Nexus Contemporary Art Center in 1984, and in 1987 raised $1.95 million to renovate a 35,000-square-foot warehouse complex on Means Street. Renamed Atlanta Contemporary Art Center in 2000, it shortened its name to Atlanta Contemporary in 2015.

The center connects local artists with audiences through its Studio Artist Program, allowing creators to share work in progress with visitors during exhibitions. This direct exchange between makers and the public shapes how the space functions as a creative hub.

Atlanta Contemporary occupies a 35,000-square-foot former warehouse complex on Means Street in West Midtown, near the Georgia Tech campus. The entrance porch with its white brick facade and glass double doors leads into the galleries. The site sits in the historic industrial district of the Westside, and the Westside Arts District's monthly Saturday art walks connect it with neighbouring art spaces.

The building was a 35,000-square-foot warehouse complex on Means Street, renovated after a $1.95 million capital campaign completed in 1987. Its earlier home was an old elementary school leased in 1976. The retail shop sells artist-made goods, including books from Nexus Press, which produced more than 150 titles before closing in 2003.
