Nottingham Contemporary (formerly known as the Centre for Contemporary Art Nottingham (CCAN)) is a contemporary art centre in the Lace Market area of Nottingham. The gallery opened in 2009.[1]
The gallery describes its site as being "the oldest in the city", having been the site of a Saxon fort.[2] To celebrate the area's history of lace manufacture, the cladding of the building is embossed with a traditional Nottingham lace pattern.
Nottingham Contemporary is a registered charity under English law.[3]
