The Gallery
Mission:
Soo Visual Arts Center is a non-profit arts organization committed to exhibiting the work of exceptional artists and to creating opportunities that foster the understanding and creation of art. SooVAC cultivates an open and inviting environment that facilitates the interaction of art, individuals and communities.
Founded by visual artist Suzy Greenberg, the non-profit gallery space and studio is based in the founder's relationship with art—one that views the artistic as vital to personal and community health and vision. SooVAC is a place where community can be built, a place where artists and viewers challenge each other to learn, create, and question. Perhaps most notably, SooVAC is a place where accessibility of the arts has been considered from the start.
