Since 1967, the MCA has been in the vanguard of contemporary art, making history with provocative and engaging programming. The Library and Archives collection keeps that history alive and makes it accessible to researchers and MCA staff alike. The archival collections tell the story of the MCA's exhibitions and programming through a rich variety of materials, including publications, photographs, exhibition records, ephemera, videos, and audio tapes.


Visitors to the MCA Library and Archives Open House will be given a tour of the MCA's small Library and Archives space, which will include a show and tell of some of the most unique and engaging items from the collection, including photographs, ephemera, artifacts and some archival footage from the MCA's early exhibitions.

This event is free.
