Check out current and past exhibitions at the AAAC

Stellar arts programming is not only our passion, but our promise to South Georgia. The AAAC sponsors the arts by utilizing the Carnegie Library as an art gallery for local and regional artists. We encourage community engagement by offering opening receptions for each exhibition; the openings and exhibitions are always free and open to the public and attended monthly by upwards of 200 people. We are happy to host a diverse audience from all parts of Albany and many surrounding communities with each exhibition.

CURRENT EXHIBITION

A Room of Her Own

A Room of Her Own is an invitational exhibition celebrating Women’s History Month through the work of female artists from Albany and the surrounding region. Inspired by the concept of creative autonomy articulated in Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own, the exhibition gives each invited artist a discrete gallery space within the Albany Area Arts Council’s historic Carnegie Library, transforming the galleries into a series of personal environments shaped by each artist’s voice, lived experience, and creative process. The exhibition features five contemporary artists from our region: Maya Johnson, Tram Vi Nguyen, Madye Carter, Britny Wray, and Nia Hawkins. Featuring a range of media and perspectives, A Room of Her Own offers visitors an intimate opportunity to encounter how these artists explore identity, memory, resilience, and self-definition through their work.
