Inaugurated in 1969, it was the first multi-venue, multi-genre cultural centre in South Asia and was conceived by JRD Tata and Dr. Jamshed Bhabha. The NCPA operates five theatres alongside galleries, libraries and reception spaces, and programmes Indian classical music, Western classical music, dance, theatre, film and photography through the year.
