Cafesjian Center for the Arts, Contemporary art center in Kentron District, Yerevan, Armenia.

The Cafesjian Center for the Arts occupies the Cascade complex, featuring multiple levels of exhibition spaces connected by grand staircases and escalators.

Gerard Cafesjian established the center in 2009, transforming an unfinished Soviet-era structure into a modern cultural institution with over 5,000 artworks.

The center maintains an extensive collection of glass art, paintings, and sculptures, including works by Fernando Botero and Dale Chihuly.

Visitors can access the sculpture garden daily while exhibition galleries operate from Friday through Sunday between 10:00 AM and 8:00 PM.

The center houses a monumental triptych titled 'History of Armenia' by Grigor Khanjyan alongside bas-reliefs depicting the Armenian epic 'David of Sasun'.
