Take Trax! When you depart from the Temple Square Station, we’re less than half a block from the station on West Temple.
Ride a bike! There is ample bike parking in front of the Museum.
The Museum is ADA accessible. We suggest parking on the street in front of the Museum, or in an accessible parking spot in the City Creek parking garage on West Temple (the garage parking is free for 2 hours, then $2 for each additional hour). If you park in the garage, you will use the crosswalk on West Temple to get to the Museum.
The Museum entrance includes a curved ramp with a slight incline.
The lobby, Art Shop, Projects Gallery, Street Gallery, Codec Gallery, and accessible gender-inclusive restrooms are all on the main level.
The Main Gallery, A.I.R. Space Gallery, and Exit Gallery are on the lower level. There is an elevator just beyond the lobby Coat Check.
Wheelchairs are available for check out at the front desk.
Our exhibitions rotate every other month and often include audio elements. Please call the front desk to inquire about the noise levels in our current exhibitions, as well as to make accommodations if you anticipate the audio might be distracting.
Service animals specifically trained to aid a person with a disability are welcome at the Museum.
For further accessibility-related questions, including for visitors who are deaf or hard of hearing, and those who are blind or visually impaired, please call Visitor Services at 801-328-4201.

We show contemporary art, or the art of our time.
Contemporary art is art made in the past 5-6 decades. It can be made with any medium, including painting, sculpture, photography, video, ceramic, multimedia, and so much more. Contemporary artists present images and ideas that relate to the world we live in today.
Not quite. Modern art denotes a particular period and style of artmaking that occurred between the late 19th century and the mid to late 20th century. Some notable modern artists include Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Wassily Kandisky, and Marcel Duchamp. These artists would not be considered contemporary. Contemporary art is more recent and ongoing—the art of our time.
