Centre of International Contemporary Art Vancouver
CICA Vancouver is a non-profit, BIPOC and female-led contemporary art organization founded in 2021 in Vancouver's Gastown neighbourhood, dedicated to showcasing international and local contemporary artists through three to four seasonal exhibitions per year. The gallery bridges local and global creative communities, regularly featuring immersive and large-scale works by artists such as James Turrell, James Jean, and Ayako Rokkaku. A touring cyclist stopping here would find a compact, accessible gallery with a rotating program of ambitious international art just steps from the downtown core.
