To extend its reach throughout the country, the academy has set up branches in most districts.[1] The branches arrange district-level festivals, programs, and training in various fine and performing arts.[2][3]

The branch in Chittagong, Bangladesh's second largest city and headquarters of the eponymous district, grew out of the private-sector art gallery Chattagram Kalabhaban. The gallery was founded by artist and professor Rashid Choudhury in 1972, two years before the national academy came into being.[1][4][5]
