Berkeley Art Center


  • About Us

    Berkeley Art Center (BAC) is a hub for artistic exploration and community building that champions Bay Area artists and curators. Located in Live Oak Park in North Berkeley, we make contemporary art approachable at an intimate scale while serving diverse communities through exhibitions and artist-conceived events, workshops, and programs for youth.

    BAC's Arts & Crafts–style building was designed by Robert Ratcliff Architects in 1967 and built by the Rotary Club as a gift to the City of Berkeley. For more than 50 years, we have presented work by established and emerging local artists for free as a resource for the community to connect with art, ideas, and place.
