Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, Art museum in central Denver, United States.
The Museum of Contemporary Art Denver is a modern art museum in downtown Denver that displays rotating exhibitions featuring paintings, sculptures, installations, and video works. The building provides spacious galleries designed specifically for presenting contemporary art forms.
The museum was founded in 1996 and moved to its current building in 2007, designed by architect David Adjaye. This relocation marked a significant moment in the institution's growth as an established art center in the city.
The museum features works by artists from around the world while creating space for local creators through its exhibitions and events. This approach roots the institution in the regional art scene while connecting local perspectives with international art movements.
The museum is open Tuesday through Friday starting at midday and weekend mornings, with reduced admission prices in the evenings. Planning ahead is helpful since hours are limited and exhibitions rotate regularly.
The building incorporates sustainable design features such as natural lighting and a rooftop garden overlooking the city skyline. This blend of art display and environmentally conscious architecture creates an unusual visitor experience.
