Museo Universitario del Chopo

Calle Doctor Enrique González Martínez 10, Colonia Santa María la Ribera

Founded in 1975, The Museo Universitario del Chopo generates dialogues within emerging cultural collectives and independent networks through cross-cutting programs addressed to the university community and the general public.

The MUAC is an open space for dialogue and transformation, promoting artistic, cultural, and community practices in an inclusive, participatory environment. It fosters ethical-political agency, enabling communities to interact, learn, and develop critical thought.

Conceived as a social centre in the form of a museum, the MUAC adapts to evolving needs, fostering art/politics intersections, cultural experimentation, and social movements. Aligned with the UNAM Institutional Development Plan, it aims to be a cultural hub for young people, while expanding its reach to other communities, including children and the elderly.
