About

The Contemporary Dayton, formerly the Dayton Visual Arts Center (DVAC) helps sustain the arts community by providing a place to show, market and sell work and also helps satisfy the needs and wants of art-lovers who have a place to see artists’ work and, often, meet the artists. At its core, the Contemporary Dayton advances art for the community and a community for artists. We receive operating support from the Ohio Arts Council, Culture Works, Montgomery County Arts and Cultural District, the Dayton Power & Light Foundation and the Virginia W.
