Opening Friday, October 12th, from 3PM - 4PM
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.
Enjoy a tour of the MCA’s small Library and Archives space, which includes 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.
