A contemporary art gallery in Johannesburg.
Arts and cultural development contributes to the well-being of the country and its environment in the broadest sense. Visual Arts contribute to the personal fulfillment, community participation and community identity of a region. Cultural industries are a growing and vital part of the local economy. The cultural sectors provide substantial employment and help to promote a region as a favourable destination for visitors from across borders and metropolitan areas as well as national and international tourists. The diverse artistic and cultural life of Melville is a central feature of its character and identity, and is responsible for attracting many of its permanent residents and visitors, hence M.A.P. (Melville Art Project) Contemporary is situated in an ideal spot in the cultural hub of Melville. Local government needs to play a vital role in increasing an environment in which arts and cultural activity continue to flourish. This idealogy for M.A.P. Contemporary reflects our commitment to the future of Melville as a centre of arts, cultural activity and innovation.
