About our Gallery

The Shelby County Arts Council’s EBSCO Fine Art Gallery is a place in our community to exhibit local, regional and international visual artists. Founded in 2005 the gallery has served the city of Columbiana and greater Shelby county for over 10 years. Established on the principle that a community should have a creative outlet for its members, the SCAC EBSCO Fine Art Gallery hosts the annual Adult Juried Art Exhibit and the Statewide High School Juried Art Exhibit along with several other rotating exhibits. Over the years, the SCAC has showcased hundreds of artists and featured a wide array of art mediums.
Our gallery is open to the public with specific installations in mind. Some of our past gallery shows can be found at in our blog. Our exhibits contain a wide variety of art experience-from student and professional shows, to folk artists and those in training. Our contemporary setting is inclined toward creating an accessible environment for everyone and working to exalt the role of the artist to an area of prominence within the community.
Our gallery exhibits are free and open to the public.
