History
In April 2004 KickArts, in partnership with JUTE Theatre, opened the Centre of Contemporary Arts, a multi-purpose contemporary arts facility, at 96 Abbott Street, Cairns. The Centre is animated by KickArts's creative program of gallery exhibitions and the KickArts Shop on a daily basis, forming a catalyst and hub featuring Australian and International artists, professional development programs and 'KidsArt', a program of workshops especially designed for children. These activities have become a recognised benchmark and a link for the local and transitory tourist community alike to experience the vital and unique contemporary visual culture of northern Australia.
