The CGAC's Activities and Pedagogical Department develops its programme with a primary goal: to bring art to society through the rigorous analysis of critical issues inherent in contemporary artistic activity.
Film seasons and conferences, workshops, seminars and concerts, make up the centre’s fundamental offer of activities, aiming to involve a wide range of audiences from the professional sector of the world of art and culture to an increasingly larger group of artists and fine art and history students, not to mention all those interested in the evolution of art and aesthetic reflection.
At the same time, the CGAC develops specific programmes for schools and colleges as well as guided tours, with the purpose of providing the various groups who come to the museum with the necessary tools to understand contemporary art and, from there, the world we live in.

This project was created with the aim of providing, through contemporary art, a space for learning, creativity, and motivation for children and young people undergoing hospitalisation.

Urban planning and contemporary architecture remain among the great unknowns of the city of Santiago de Compostela. The aim of this activity is to encourage citizens to go beyond monumental Compostela and to walk, discover and enjoy an architectural landscape that is contemporary and constantly evolving.
On this occasion, and in response to public demand, we are reissuing several architecture routes carried out in recent years.
The aim of this programme is to promote and facilitate a dialogue between the public and contemporary art using yoga as a tool for mediation.
