02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
CCA is a not-for-profit, multi-purpose, centre for contemporary art and culture located in the city centre of Glasgow. We curate thought-provoking, often experimental work and provide a platform for a collaborative, civic-led programme, all of which serves as a catalyst for new ways of thinking and active engagement. We host a programme of exhibitions, events, films, music, literature, workshops, festivals and performances - working collaboratively with more than 200 programme partners every year. At the core of all activities is the desire to work with artists, develop relationships with communities across the city and beyond, commission new work and provide a welcoming and accessible space for the widest possible audience to enjoy art and culture. Across all these activities, and our building, we are actively working towards integrating sustainable practices.
