The MAC is the only institution in the island expressly dedicated to the study, collection, preservation, exhibition, and promotion of art produced since the mid-20th century in Puerto Rico, the Caribbean, Latin America, and its diasporas. It fosters an open view of contemporary art within the Puerto Rican context by encouraging a constant dialogue between artists and audiences, between past and present, and among art practice, theory and criticism, through curatorial work and innovative strategies that make the Museum’s cultural diversity, its exhibitions, activities, and its historical building, available to all types of audiences. In every instance of the Museum’s work toward fulfilling its mission, we are proud to recognize and reinforce the bonds of culture between and among the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean basin, as well as the Latinx communities and the Puerto Rican diaspora in the United States.

Located in Ave Ponce de Leon (Stop 18) this is a great place to visit for local contemporary art exhibits.

This two-floor museum in the Santurce neighborhood was once a former public school. It's now home to over 900 works of art, many from emerging local talent. There's plenty of modern art on display, and although quite a few signs and descriptions are solely in Spanish, the pieces often speak for themselves. The small gift shop is a great place to buy a unique souvenir, especially for children who like clay sculptures. Tips: • The MAC offers free admission, but happily accepts donations. Plan to stay: 2-3 hours
