about the project Allenheads Contemporary Arts (ACA) is an art/education organisation based in an old schoolhouse. The school is used as a laboratory and meeting place for artists, scientists and curators wanting to collaborate on projects involving both international and regional elements. ACA aims to build up a varied interpretation of the environment through a programme of research.
