Situated in the heart of Lutyens, Delhi, the Centre for Culture and Art is an exclusive, by invitation only art gallery and cultural centre. Originally founded by The Ardee group, CCA began its journey in Connaught Place, for over 30 years from the 1980s until the turn of the century. CCA stood as a vibrant hub at the heart of Delhi's art scene, before closing its doors. Now this iconic institution has been lovingly revived, reimagined, and reformed by The Ardee group.
“CCA is an art gallery dedicated to the patronage of unknown Student artists and Tribal artists with an aim to discover, mentor, and promote “future” masters as part of a long-term cultural investment in India.”
ENQUIRE NOWOur journey started with pioneering real estate projects, creating landmark residential and commercial spaces that have stood the test of time. Recognizing the need for progressive education, we expanded into academia with the establishment of The Ardee Schools and Ardee Montessori Houses, setting new standards in learning excellence.
Building on our legacy of innovation, we ventured into sports and wellness, launching Ardee Masters, Ardee Racquet Club, and Ardee Active — premium destinations dedicated to fostering athletic talent and promoting a culture of health and fitness.
CCA, our iconic art gallery originally founded in the late nineties, has also been reimagined and reopened as a distinct cultural vertical under the Ardee umbrella. Our legacy is built on vision, trust, and an unwavering commitment to creating a brighter future for generations to come.
