Truly Cosmopolitan

2010s Building Renovation Staff Visitors

The new restaurant and theater together create a unique cultural experience.

I think for me the most exciting part of the museum's renovation is the restaurant and bar area, and especially how adjacent it is to our theater because we put on incredible performance programs during the year here at the MCA, and I think people are hungry to extend that experience, either to meet a friend for a drink before the performance starts or to continue your evening after the performance is over by having dinner or a drink, and the fact that this beautifully designed restaurant and lobby are just right outside our theater doors, I think it's going to really make that a richer, very sophisticated cosmopolitan type of experience.
