It designs and hosts exhibitions, both solo and group shows, that explore the national and international art scene. To promote a deeper understanding of contemporary art, the PAC provides free resources alongside each exhibition, enhancing accessibility and engagement.
Through its public programme, the PAC further explores the themes addressed by artists, creating opportunities for dialogue with both adults and young audiences. Its programming is overseen by a scientific committee, appointed by the Department of Culture of the Municipality of Milan, and is partly entrusted to guest curators from Italy and abroad.
A founding member of AMACI – the Association of Italian Contemporary Art Museums – the PAC collaborates with institutions and leading organisations dedicated to contemporary culture.
