Contemporary Art Month

Discover a masterpiece at the nation's only month-long arts festival. Local artists hawk their wares alongside members of the international contemporary art scene. Events spill over from traditional gallery and museum spaces into neighborhood venues and studios. Now over 20 years old, CAM (as locals refer to it) draws more than 500 exhibitors and offers the public the opportunity to buy or simply admire a colorful array of works. Some events charge admission.
