The Delaware Center for the Contemporary Arts (DCCA) is "one of the most innovative and prominent organizations of its kind on the East Coast," according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. Located in downtown Wilmington on the corner of South Madison and West streets, the DCCA makes its home just a few blocks away from Frawley Stadium. The DCCA is located in the Harlan and Hollingsworth building on the Wilmington waterfront. It features 35,000 square feet of space, and is the home to seven different galleries.

A non-collector museum, the DCCA presents several exhibitions each year, including artists from the local region as well as around the world. In addition to the exhibitions, the DCCA is active in educating the Wilmington community. The DCCA features outreach programs like Contemporary Connections, a program that combines art with the core school curriculum and provides new and interesting ways to teach other subjects, including science and math. The DCCA also has 26 studios, an auditorium equipped with innovative technology, a classroom, and even a gift shop.

A small group of volunteer artists and patrons of the arts founded the DCCA in 1979. The DCCA started out originally in a sheet-metal fabrication building, and moved several times over the next two decades. In 2000, the DCCA moved into the historic Harlan and Hollingsworth building. Since the beginning, it has focused on promoting the growth and understanding of the contemporary arts in Delaware and the surrounding region.

After your visit to the DCCA, enjoy a wonderful meal of French Cuisine at the Green Room. Located at Hotel DuPont, at 11th and Market streets, the Green room is features a colorful combination of new and old decor, from comfortable wingback chairs to the Versace pattern china. Expand your culinary horizons with the chef’s tasting menu each evening.

While you’re at the historic Wilmington waterfront, you could also take in a show at the Delaware Theatre Company.
