Centralization, formalization and complexity are considered as the most important dimensions of the process of making analysis of the structure of an organization.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate and analyze the dimensions of the structure of the cultural art center of the Islamic Propagation Office of Qom Seminary, a center which is intended to contribute, through art work, to effective and inclusive propagation.
The center's responsibility is stimulating educational activities, holding formal conferences, holding meetings with art critics, making use of art in propagation and presenting strategies for using art in religious propagation. A standard questionnaire was used to identify the structural dimensions, including concentration, formalization and complexity as the structural dimensions and mechanical or organic dimension of the cultural art center. The research results indicate that the cultural- art center shows a tendency towards becoming an organic structure. Moreover, the analysis of the structure of the center shows that the center is an institution with moderate centralization, upper intermediate formalization and a lower intermediate complexity.
