It's free and pretty quick. Why not stop in and see the exhibit on display? Not very crowded when I went.

Jeremy Beker

Fun little (free) museum . Be sure to make it up to the third level where they have records you can listen to.

Michelle Roberts

MoCP always does a good job of bringing comprehensive contemporary work to Chicago. Don't forget that the gallery space continues on 2nd and 3rd floors.

Free exhibit ! Excellent photography

Raquel Lazaro

Really nice picture. And it’s free.

It's VERY small. May have been my luck and taste, but did not love the exhibit when I visited. Good thing is that it's free/suggested donation.
