Fine Art: Space 301



Space 301 is a contemporary art museum in downtown Mobile. The museum, opened in 2003, is operated by the Centre for the Living Arts. The Centre for the Living Arts is an organization whose goal is to promote arts in downtown Mobile.

Space 301 displays numerous types of art, from sculptures and drawings to films. Located across from Cathedral Square, Space 301 showcases artwork from all over the United States.

According to Cindy Phillips, Education Coordinator for Space 301, the variety of art is constantly changing. "Our exhibits change every two months and they're coordinated with the LoDa art walk, which occurs the second Friday of every month in downtown Mobile. So you can come down on the second Friday and every other month you will see a new exhibit," said Phillips.

There is also a people's art exhibition that happens every few years. Members of the community have a chance to display their art on Space 301 for people to see.

Space 301 also offers internships and a variety of classes. There are numerous art classes, as well as yoga and other types of activities.

Admission is free, so there is no reason why you shouldn't go and see the variety of art displayed at Space 301.
