artandculturecenter.orgThe Center’s mission is to cultivate creativity and the support of the arts in our community through education, innovation, and collaboration.The Art and Culture Center/Hollywood is a leader among South Florida multidisciplinary cultural organizations for its presentation of contemporary gallery exhibitions, arts education for youth, and award-winning documentary film shorts.About UsThe Center was founded in 1975 as the only visual arts nonprofit in south Broward County, operating out of a small community space on Hollywood beach. We now manage visual arts galleries in the renovated Kagey Home built in 1924, an Arts School that is adjacent to the main facility, and the 500-seat Hollywood Central Performing Arts Center located near downtown Hollywood. The Center impacts about 40,000 people each year through its programs and facilities. In 2019, the Center was allocated $2.5 million in City funds towards its Arts Ignite! building initiative as part of a General Obligation Bond referendum that was approved by Hollywood voters. These funds will support the City’s expansion of our facilities with the construction, in 2024, of a modern 5,000-square-feet Arts Education Wing that will adjoin the 1924 Mediterranean Revival architecture of the Kagey galleries and offices.
