Culture Shanghai
Free exhibitions and public programmes make this university art centre a cultural stop in Qiantan.
ICA welcomes the public through its West Gaoqing Road entrance. Standard gallery hours are Tuesday to Saturday, 11:00–18:00, with closures for university holidays listed on the visitor page. Exhibitions, discussions and workshops have their own schedules, and some programmes specify a language or participation format. Check the visit page before travelling; the public entrance is different from assuming open access through every campus door.
