About the Curb Center

Creative Flourishing at Curb

Through programs that serve Vanderbilt students, faculty, and staff as well as the broader Nashville community, the Curb Center positions art as a tool for investigating critical questions, understanding complex challenges, and flourishing through creative and artistic expression.

Community members are welcome to explore our gallery space, attend events featuring our artists in residence, apply for funding opportunities, and learn more about Curb Center supported projects. Each semester, The Curb Center connects a gallery exhibition and other programming with a central theme. This theme presents the community with critical questions designed to spur artistic investigation.

 

Our Funding

Established through the generosity of Mike Curb, Founder of Curb Records and the Mike Curb Foundation, The Curb Center is a resource for creative communities at Vanderbilt and beyond.
