We are a vibrant community arts center that has over 50,000 visits annually through shows, art classes and community events.  Our diverse programming appeals to a variety of audiences and includes performances that educate and engage dialogue about social issues. CAC offers affordable and free arts programs to people of all ages and income levels, and we are very proud to provide arts education classes and workshops for at-risk youth in the greater Brooklyn Park region.

Our facility is the remarkable result of a $35 million renovation of Brooklyn Park High School.  The complex now includes the CAC, a police substation, a county recreation center, a senior center, and Brooklyn Park Middle School, which is one of two Performing & Visual Arts (PVA) magnet middle schools in Anne Arundel County.
