The Centre for Contemporary Art, CCA, Lagos, is an independent non-profit making visual art organisation founded in December 2007 by Bisi Silva (1962 – 2019).
The centre provides a platform for the development, presentation, and discussion of contemporary visual art and culture. It seeks to create new audiences and to prioritise media such as photography, film and video, performance and installation art, which have been under-represented in Nigeria.
