The Arts Consortium of Cincinnati (ACC) is the Queen City's premier center for African American art and culture. It has operated continuously since 1972, making it one of the most enduring institutions of its kind in the country. A cultural resource for all of Cincinnati, the Art's Consortium's success is the result of the effective collaboration between community residents, government officials and visionary artists. Serving as a model for inclusion through socio-cultural diversity, the Art's Consortium has remained true to its mission:
"to celebrate, advance and preserve African-American culture and achievement through art, history and education."
