The Centre for Contemporary Photography (CCP), in Fitzroy, Victoria, Melbourne is one of Australia's premier venues for the exhibition of contemporary photo-based arts, providing a context for the enjoyment, education, understanding and appraisal of contemporary practice.

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.

Exhibitions

CCP's exhibition program is presented across five exhibition spaces, including the evening Projection Window viewed after dark, 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.
