Spark Contemporary Art Space acts as a gallery, performance space, and studio. Spark's primary aim is to provide space and community to emerging artists in the Syracuse region and beyond. The gallery was founded in the mid-nineties and functions as a contemporary venue and resource to the artistic and performative talents of the region. Exhibition proposals are accepted on a running basis and gallery space is available to rent for weekly or nightly events and shows.

With the initiation of a monthly video screening series in 2001, Spark became one of the leading venues for video art in Syracuse. Spark Video provides the community an opportunity to see video work from local and international artists. Performances are not limited to video art, as Spark hosts musical acts from all over the world on a regular basis.

In 2006, Spark initiated Spark Studios, offering studio space for rent to artists and creating a closer connection to the local arts community.
