Overview

FREE Admission

In collaboration with Science on the Square and Madison Night Market, MMoCA is open until 8 PM on Thursday, October 19 with art and activities.

Start by exploring Federico Uribe: Metamorphosis | Metamorfosis, a magical and colorful exhibition of sculptures made of everyday materials.

Orbit the sculpture Earth Mother, suspended in the museum’s lobby, as you reflect on how our planet has changed over time due to continental drift and plate tectonics. Then, create your own artwork inspired by Earth Mother.

Head into the galleries to get a closer look at the materials and craftsmanship in Federico Uribe’s exhibition. Visit a farm, sit in a forest, and dive into the human impact on our planet with the Coral Reef installation created out of repurposed plastic bottles.

Admission to the museum and art activities is free!
