Big Orbit Gallery's Visual Arts Program fosters an environment of experimentation for established artists while providing emerging artists with opportunities to participate in comprehensive exhibitions and solo shows. Addressing the evolution of contemporary critical issues, the Visual Arts Program showcases local artistic production while pursuing current cultural discourse, rendering Big Orbit Gallery a locus for the diverse tendencies of visual expression in Western New York, and an invaluable resource to local audiences engaged in the global dialogue of contemporary culture.

Big Orbit Gallery's Soundlab Program, which encompasses the fields of experimental theater, literary performance, new music and sound art (with a particular emphasis on medium-challenging and genre-elusive work), aspires toward launching a new era for local engagement with the global avant garde. Divided between solo/group presentations, multi-media performance events and curated shows featuring multiple artists (presented at SOUNDLAB, an off-site venue in the Dun Building in Downtown Buffalo), Big Orbit Gallery's Non-Visual Program exposes regional artists and audiences to emerging strains for experimentation not typically programmed in Western New York.
