The Art Garage holds space for a wide variety of visual, performing and literary art. Some may find the artwork, written work, or performances presented challenging and controversial at times, but we stand by the artists' freedom to express their world views through cultural and creative avenues. The visual, performing, and literary arts are some of the strongest and most effective instruments of personal and collective freedom, and The Art Garage provides a platform to all artists, issues, and subject matter. Discrimination has no place in our arts community: we are open to all perspectives, cultures, minorities, abilities, and beliefs. While visitors may not personally agree with all the material presented, your support of the Art Garage ensures the preservation of a free and democratic creative culture.

As a public community arts organization, we also recognize the rights of community members to choose whether or not to expose themselves or their family members to certain artwork, exhibits, and performances. When appropriate, the Art Garage will give advance notice on our website or on a sign within our facility notifying you of potentially controversial content.

These works are not always reflective of the views of individual Staff or Board Members, as we often host invitationals, gallery rentals, and group exhibitions that are not directly curated by our organization. Please be mindful and respectful of the work and what it represents to its creators and our community as a whole.
