$6,000 Goal



Since 2001, Soo Visual Arts Center has showcased the work of over 3,600 artists. While most are based in Minnesota, our reach has grown to encompass the Midwest, the entire United States, and countries worldwide. We foster the careers of under-represented and emerging artists by providing exhibition opportunities, curatorial and leadership roles, and direct experience. Our gallery serves as a vibrant hub where artists can collaborate, expand their artistic practices, and connect with fellow artists and art enthusiasts within the community.

SooVAC cultivates enduring relationships, flexibility, and trust. Our curatorial vision is artist-led and open-ended, essential for collaborating with artists across diverse mediums and backgrounds. This is crucial to working with artists in various mediums and from many different cultural backgrounds.
