Contemporary Arts Center

Fun museum! The building itself is art with its industrial look. Funky stairs, wall angles, etc. The top floor has an entire set-up to make your own art. They have a small cafe and gift shop.

This is one of my favorite hidden gems of Cincinnati. CAC always has fantastic contemporary art installations that are fresh and always rotating. This visit, we got to see the final projects/theses of area art students which were spectacular. The kids' area is unparalleled and the installation on the 4th floor spotlighted Black female art at today's visit. Love the CAC and its community focus. We will be back soon!

Very clean and easy to navigate! Interesting displays and I loved the interactive art for kids on the 6th floor - such a cool idea. The check in was easy and it's free for OH and KY residents. The lady at the desk was very kind and helpful as well!

Have kiddos that live to create and looking for an immersive experience. Like modern art that is new, up and coming and thoughtfully curated? This is your place. The children’s discovery space is on the sixth floor and is fabulous. Fun for all ages! And it is free of charge. What a bonus!

Our experience wasn’t the full experience. For locals or those who live in Ohio and Kentucky this is a 10/10 experience and would highly recommend. To those who are from out of town (like ourselves) you do need to pay a fee but this is a place worth checking out. There were two floors that were closed so we didn’t get the full experience but every exhibit and collection that we saw was amazing. I would come back with kids or the family because there is so much to see and experience.
