A person's hands held up, splayed at the wrists and outstretched. In small writing it says 'And now I'm thinking about oil'.

CCA: Centre for Contemporary Arts is Glasgow’s hub for the arts. They host a year-round programme of exhibitions, events, films, music, literature, workshops, festivals and performances. At the heart of all activities is the desire to work with artists, commission new projects and present them to the widest possible audience. CCA runs an open-source programming policy, where they give their venue space to artists and organisations to present their own public events. CCA curates six exhibitions a year, presenting local and international artists in their gallery. They are also home to Intermedia Gallery, showcasing emerging artists, and support the development of new work offering a programme of artist residencies in our Creative Lab.
