The Chazen Museum of Art aims to collect, preserve, and exhibit works of art, exposing the public to the wonders of the art world.

Opened in 2006 and designed by the renowned Cesar Pelli, the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, or MMoCA as called by the people of Madison, is perhaps the biggest artistic space in the city at 51,000 square feet (4,738 square meters).

Wedding receptions and corporate events can be hosted here while a rich educative program for kids and adults makes this museum a sure winner with all. Admission is free, as are most events.
