About The Delaware Contemporary

Mission: The Delaware Contemporary’s mission is to infuse contemporary art and creativity into the community through compelling exhibitions, dynamic educational experiences, and access to the artistic process.

The museum presents over 20 exhibitions annually of regionally, nationally, and internationally recognized artists that explore topical issues in contemporary art and society. We provide opportunities for local and emerging artists, and are committed to educational and community outreach through various programs. We welcome and embrace all who seek to experience art, offering free admission to ensure equitable access to the arts. Through collaboration with artists, curators, and partner organizations we take risks and push boundaries to inspire new ways of looking at the world, offer artistically stimulating experiences, and engage more people in the transformative power of art to make an impact in our community.
