Beirut Art Center, Art museum in Jisr el Wati, Beirut, Lebanon.
The Beirut Art Center spans 1500 square meters across two floors, featuring exhibition spaces, a bookstore, an auditorium, a médiathèque, and a café.
Established in 2009 by Sandra Dagher, Lamia Joreige, Nathalie Khoury, Rabih Mroué, and Maria Ousseimi, the center transformed a former factory into an exhibition space.
The center hosts exhibitions throughout the year, presenting works from Lebanese and international artists while organizing educational programs and artist discussions.
Located along the banks of the Beirut River in an industrial area, the center maintains regular exhibitions and provides resources for artistic experimentation.
The New Museum in New York City recognized the center's influence by hosting Museum as Hub: Beirut Art Center in 2011, showcasing Lebanese contemporary art.
