The Museum of Contemporary Art opened a
decade ago and was designed by New York architect Charles Gwathmey.
The 23,000 square-foot space hosts concerts, parties, film
screenings, lectures, and other events on a regular basis, but its
main focus is making art accessible to underserved communities. It
does so “by exploring the art of our time and its relationship to a
broader cultural context.” In 8-10 exhibits a year, the museum
features young and emerging artists as well as local and
internationally recognized artists. The museum’s latest exhibit,
“Metro Pictures,” features paintings, sculptures, photographs,
videos, and performances by artists capturing urban life.
