South Side Community Art Center Opens Interim Offices in The DuSable Black History Museum and Education Center Honoring Shared Legacy of Dr. Margaret Burroughs on Her Birthday!

SSCAC’s temporary move comes at the heels of its $18-million renovation and expansion project and represents a meaningful chapter in SSCAC’s 85-year history as a steward of Black art and culture. The capital project includes preservation of its landmark 1892 building at 3831 South Michigan Avenue and construction of a new 10,000 square-foot addition. The expanded facility will deepen SSCAC’s capacity to serve artists, students, and the broader public through exhibitions, residencies, education, and cultural programs.
