Additional Important Information:

ECOCA has a ramp entrance for those who cannot use stairs, however due to the nature of the old Victorian building, there are only stairs to reach the second and third floors. We do provide scrolling images of the upstairs work on a monitor for the duration of the exhibitions and offer live streaming options for other programming (artists talks/performances etc) that take place in the upstairs galleries.
