BWAC is a artist-run, 501(c)3 non-profit. With 25,000 SF of exhibition space, we provide opportunities for artists to show their work, develop professionally, and engage the public in the experience of art.

Please consider a donation to help us rebuild by clicking below.

Thank you everyone for your patience, trust, and your continued support. We have started the recovery phase which included moving all the art out of the building we were able to Tuesday 9/30. Any work that was not picked up has been relocated to a safe site and is being evaluated until artists can reclaim their work. Artists please check your emails. Thank you.
