The Šiška Cultural Quarter stands for a couple of culturally significant locations in the Ljubljana neighbourhood of Šiška, an otherwise predominantely residental area that around 2010 started to function as one of the main urban culture hubs of Ljubljana.

The most active institution in this regard is the Kino Šiška Centre for Urban Culture, which opened its doors in 2009. A few years later, a huge, municipality owned building was re-purposed for cultural activities, and now houses a cluster of offices and galleries run by well-established cultural NGOs, and some individual studios, all selected through a public call. Nearby to this concentrated hub, one can also find the Vodnik Homestead, as of recently a centre for various activities that predominantely relate to literature.
