           Kendall Art Cultural Center (KACC)

         Dedicated to the preservation and promotion of contemporary art

MISSION STATEMENT

Kendall Art Cultural Center (KACC), is dedicated to the preservation and promotion of contemporary art and artists, and to the exchange of art and ideas throughout Miami and South Florida, as well as abroad. Through an energetic calendar of exhibitions, programs, and its collections, KACC provides an international platform for the work of established and emerging artists, advancing public appreciation and understanding of contemporary art. 

 

VISION

The Kendall Art Cultural Center’s (KACC) vision is to be an active participant in the art community of South Florida and abroad, while providing education, preservation and awareness of the visual arts.

MISSION

The Kendall Art Cultural Center's (KACC) mission is to promote knowledge and appreciation of the arts by exhibiting, researching, and preserving the collection for current and future generations. Our work includes authentication, research into artists' methods and materials, preventive care of the collections, loans, exhibitions and innovation in conservation treatment.

 

EDUCATIONAL ROLE

The Kendall Art Cultural Center (KACC) aims to educate and create an ongoing dialogue with the public on the concepts of contemporary art and its role in society and the art market. By exhibiting the work of emerging, established, international and local artists, K.A.C.C. fosters education that stimulates critical thinking and art appreciation.

Activities focus on works of art in the collection and special exhibitions. Through discussion, research, art-making, and writing activities, we hope to encourage awareness and foster conversation between students, teachers and the community of artists.

 

Every year approximately 20,000 people visit the Kendall Art Cultural Center. Although this is only one portion of the total audience—which also includes people who read our publications, visit the websites, participate in our outreach programs, and collaborate with researchers—on-site visitors are the Institution’s core constituency. Their experiences in the Kendall Art Cultural Center shape public perceptions of our institution and community across the nation and the world.
