Since COVID-19 hit in March 2020, we estimate a loss of nearly $700K in revenues from operations including reduced capacity for general admission and the elimination of ticketed events, private facility rentals, and event fundraising. And now we’re closed once more to comply with new public health orders. As a close friend of the museum, we are asking you to please give early and encourage your friends and family to do the same, so that our whole community has the chance to get behind MCA in our time of need. Your gift has never been as vital, as impactful, and as necessary as it is now, so I thank you in advance for your consideration.

The exhibition features recent work and several new commissions by more than 30 artists and organizations. Meet the artists in the exhibition, take a look at their work, listen to the artists' commentary about their art, learn what MCA programs they are involved in, and dive deeper into the exhibition.

Somehow it’s mid-November and we’re approaching the holiday season. Can we just pause for a minute, and acknowledge how much of this year we’ve made it through? There’s so much we’re still experiencing and yes, uncertainty still lies ahead, but we also think it’s worth recognizing that this year has shown just how resilient and adaptive we can be. 

The holidays are going to look and feel a little or a lot different this year. We may not be able to gather with friends and family the way we did in the past, but we can still show our love from afar. From writing love letters to making playlists to sending presents, there are myriad ways we can let the people we care about know how much we love and miss them. MCA Denver’s Shop can help with unique, local and artist-made presents.

TO TELL YOUR OWN STORY IS A SACRED ACT–As history continues to center the conquerors, the kings, the wealthy and the powerful, it is time to question the corrupt norms we subscribe to in our history classes and revolutionize a new telling: the telling of the Anti-Hero’s story.
