Soo Visual Arts Center, founded in 2001, is a non-profit 501 (c)3 arts organization. 

Mission: Soo Visual Arts Center is a nonprofit art space that connects our
community with fresh, under-represented and provocative art. Vision: Soo Visual Arts Center envisions a dynamic community in which artists and audiences challenge each other in an environment where art is
integral to everyday life.

We have exhibited over 2600 under-represented artists since opening our doors in 2001. As a leader in discovering new talent and with a strong  focus on emerging artists from the State of Minnesota, SooVAC offers year-round exhibition programming coupled with educational support, artist talks, and workshops. Our curatorial focus promotes contemporary artists whose work challenges and expands conventional notions of aesthetics. Through this approach, we enable artists to explore and grow while fostering an environment that encourages artists to take risks in their artwork and to push themselves in new directions.
