General Info

Hailed by the Chicago Tribune as a major architectural asset to the City, the Museum of Contemporary Art is described as a building of cool, quiet distinction. Inside, modern culture is documented through sculpture, paintings, performance, video and film. The Museum's mission is to offer contemporary art to the public so that it may experience the work and ideas of living artists. To that end, the MCA offers a continuously changing series of exhibits, as well as a fifteen-hundred volume art library, a museum store, studio and classroom space and a 300 seat theater.
