Sheikha Al Mayassa bint Hamad al-Thani, Chairperson of Qatar Museums, inaugurated the Centre for Contemporary Arts Tashkent (CCA Tashkent) in Uzbekistan. This marks the first permanent contemporary art center in the country, established through a collaborative five-year program between Qatar Museums and the Uzbekistan Art and Culture Development Foundation (ACDF) under the Years of Culture initiative.
Located in a 1912 industrial building, CCA Tashkent serves as a multidisciplinary hub for art, research, and cultural exchange. During the inauguration, Sheikha Al Mayassa toured the facility, viewed its inaugural exhibition, Hikmah, and emphasized the importance of reciprocal and sustained cultural exchange. The opening of CCA Tashkent strengthens the shared foundation of this relationship and embodies the spirit of ongoing cultural collaboration.
