MCA
The Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago (MCA) is one of the world’s largest museums dedicated to contemporary art. Here, the public can experience the work and ideas of living artists and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.
Since its foundation in 1967, the museum’s mission has been to exhibit new and experimental work in all media, paired with ambitious learning programmes. In 1974, the MCA expanded its mission to include collecting and preserving contemporary art for future generations with the inauguration of a collection that has grown to include more than 2,000 works.
The MCA engages audiences of today and tomorrow, working closely with its community to create space for dialogue, learning, and growth.
