Today, Identifying harms caused by cultural application to resolve some cultural problems in cities seems vital .So determining appropriate criteria and optimal location selecting for urban application is essential. The city of Gazvin was selected because it was in a bad condition based on the criteria discussed above. Based on theoretical discussions and our aim, in this study we made an effort to arrive at an optimal model for the location of academy and art creation centers in Gazvin through a descriptive and applied methodology. We employed field and library studies to gain our objective. Also, GIS software as well as ANP method was employed to analyze data and add reliability to our findings. Observing layer overlapping of maps, we noticed a mismatch and dispersion in applications in Gazvin. Priorities were determined through the abovementioned model and optimal locations for artistic and cultural centers were determined. Besides, due to increasing process of the city, we made sure that the number of such centers doesn’t exist in standard share and because of developmental procedure of city, location in north part seems desirable.
