Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit

Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit is where adventurous minds experience the best in contemporary visual, performance, and literary arts. As a responsive center for diverse audiences, MOCAD presents exhibitions and programming that contextualize, interpret, and expand culture. Your rental fee contributes to the overall health of the institution by providing for day-to-day operations. This enables admission to MOCAD’s Exhibitions to remain free to the public (with only a suggested donation at entry) creating access opportunities for all members of the community. An important part of Midtown’s cultural hub, MOCAD is located at the corner of Woodward and Garfield. Designed by Albert Kahn (and originally built as an automobile dealership), the 22,000 square foot building has been simply renovated to retain the best elements of its historic character. As an ideal environment for the exhibition of contemporary art, the museum’s high ceilings, and raw, open spaces provide a versatile setting, the perfect site for events of all types. We have hosted weddings and mitzvahs, commercials, automobile and other product reveals, and so much more. This booklet outlines basic fees, services, and policies but cannot cover everything. Please reach out with any questions or to schedule a walkthrough.
