[edit] History
Established in 1986 by the photographic community as a not-for-profit exhibition and resource centre, CCP has played a pivotal role in the support of photo-based arts and public engagement with photography. In 2005, CCP relocated to purpose designed premises by Sean Godsell Architects. The current Director is Naomi Cass.
[edit] Exhibitions
CCP's exhibition program is presented across five exhibition spaces, including the Night Projection Window, viewed from 9pm to 2am, and features a diverse range of photo-based arts from emerging to established artists. The program includes individual, group and curated exhibitions representing the very best of local, interstate and international photography. CCP welcomes proposals from emerging and established artists, as well as curators and writers. Information regarding proposals can be found at the CCP website. Admission to CCP is free.
[edit] Publishing
In April 2009, CCP began publishing FLASH - a quarterly online journal. FLASH features reviews, interviews and commentary on photography and video in Australia by a diverse group of established and emerging writers. Edited by Kyla McFarlane, FLASH is a free journal.
