Fairly new (established in 1994), this museum has served as a space to help develop and expand the main tendencies of contemporary art and design, at the national and international levels.
 Costa Rican Contemporary Art and Design Museum Since its beginnings, the museum has held more than 50 exhibitions, the majority developed by the museum's own curational staff. Some of them included traveling exhibitions and the first contemporary arts exhibition in Central America. It's located within the Centro Nacional de Cultura - CENAC (National Center for Culture). This is a large complex building with striking architectural features, that used to be the National Liqueur Factory established in 1856. The award-winning complex, was restored in 1994, and includes the Ministry of Culture, a dance studio, two theaters and an amphitheater.
It's open from Tuesday through Saturday, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
