Dear Visitors,
This new component
of the MCA website helps families plan their visit to the museum and invites
them to learn about and explore some of the amazing art in the MCA Collection.
We hope this site helps to make your visit an exciting shared adventure.
Our exhibitions change regularly, so check our website often to see what is on
view and coming soon that might interest your family.
We look forward to welcoming you to the MCA soon!
Best Wishes,
Wendy Woon
