Entry to the new exhibit is included with general admission. October 2024 through July 2025 visitors can revel in a rare and rich tapestry of treasured maritime-themed art and admire notable artists’ work, embracing the nautical world of breathtaking coasts, artifacts & treasured ships. 

Reflections is an art-making workshop series designed to serve adults 55 and older.

In this new workshop series, participants will learn about the many facets of sculpture while touring artworks from MCASD's collection and new special exhibition, For Dear Life: Art, Medicine, and Disability.

Please join us for this unique event presented in collaboration between the UC San Diego Stein Institute for Research on Aging and the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego. This event will feature a thought-provoking panel discussion on the intersection of art, aging, and the museum experience, followed by a guided tour of the Museum and a reception.

The panel will showcase the meaningful work being done by both organizations, supported by the Vitality Arts Program, to explore how art can engage, empower, and enrich the lives of older adults.
