Museum of Contemporary Art of Puerto Rico
Nestled in Santurce, the Puerto Rico Museum of Contemporary Art (MAC) stands as a testament to the evolving art narratives of our times. Born from the vision of Puerto Rican artists in 1984, MAC emerged as a vibrant platform addressing the pressing issues in contemporary art.
With its commitment to fostering dialogue, MAC bridges the gap between artists and audiences, the heritage of yesteryears and the innovations of today. Dive into its eclectic collection that chronicles art’s journey from the mid-20th century onward.
Housing these masterpieces is a Georgian-style edifice echoing 18th-century English elegance. The building underwent meticulous restoration under the expertise of local architect Otto Reyes Casanova from 1995 to 2002. And for those exploring Santurce, MAC is a mere ten-minute stroll from the bustling La Placita.
Open every weekend, Friday through Sunday, from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm, MAC beckons art enthusiasts and the curious alike to immerse in its exhibitions and diverse cultural programs.
For those seeking a pulse on contemporary art within Puerto Rico’s rich tapestry, MAC offers an enriching, thought-provoking experience.
