BARCELONA CENTRE FOR CONTEMPORARY CULTURE

There are many reasons why the GGGS is an unmissable place to visit. The building itself is an architectural landmark: the Gasa de la Garitat, a former workhouse in the Raval district, underwent a refurbishment programme which earned it the FAD architecture prize. The interest in the GGGS doesn't end here and extends to its busy schedule of activities and events. The initials GGGS stand for a centre for exhibitions and activities which embraces a diversity of fields such as music, film, dance, performance and every aspect of artistic experimentation and innovation.
