ACVIC CENTRE D’ARTS CONTEMPORÀNIES is a public cultural facility for the promotion of creativity, investigation, production, and dissemination of contemporary artistic projects. ACVIC follows a course of action based upon the relationship between educational activities, Vic’s unique geography, and social interaction.

Contemporary art used in education fosters production spaces which are open to experimentation, encouraging empathy and participants’ critical views. Acvic promotes individual and collective reflection, understanding artistic practice as an instrument which impacts upon, interacts with, and transforms social space.

Our activities and projects:

Guided visits, activities and projects for schools are free. Places must be booked in advance contacting ACVIC.


GUIDED VISITS TO EXHIBITIONS

ACVIC offers a service of guided visits with the aim of bringing art closer to visiting groups, enriching their cultural background, and encouraging critical thinking among participants. All visits are complemented by an educational activity, which aims to create a ludic experience based upon the exhibitions’ themes.

ACVIC has a regular schedule of exhibitions which changes every quarter. At the beginning of each exhibition, there will be a tour for teachers and other group leaders, so that they can get to know the exhibition contents in advance.

Booking for places on guided visits throughout the school year opens in September.
