About
Launched in 2021, SOCIAL is SAC’s newest gallery space and has quickly become very popular. The dimensions of the space make it suitable for Solo and Duo Exhibitions, Small Group Exhibitions, or Touring Exhibitions.
The highly accessible, light-filled space aims to bring artists and their audiences together through a celebration of artistic experimentation, collaboration, and discovery.
It is located on the absolute street-front (ground floor) of Salamanca Arts Centre, at 67 Salamanca Place.
