Museum Of Contemporary Photo

Attended with a group and had a private docent discussion about Portraits or the perception of. Many of the photos featured and in the collection are by former students of Columbia.

I stop by every time I am in Chicago. It is a pretty small museum on two levels. Sometimes the exhibits are interesting, and sometimes the are not. Usually it is worth an hour of your time to visit.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree

Free to enter at least when I did, May 2023. It's a nice space in which you can take your time looking at the exhibit. Would come back if I'm in the area!Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree

Free admission. Great collection. Not so big. Save time with making reservation online. But they take walk ins too. Bag needs to be checked in free.

So Cool I highly recommend this place to everyone Safe Clean Fun! Lots of great photography to see.

I have been there in July 2019 and it was a good place to visit and it showed a lot of black and white photos and photo from way back and it was very interesting.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo wait

We just discovered the Museum of Contemporary Photography and I don't know why it took us so long. We went to a a discussion led by Kristin Taylor, the Curator of Academic Programs and Collections. It was stimulating and enlightening. The museum is technically free, but, there is there is a donation box in the front of the entrance, feel free to donate! The actual exhibit area is 3 floors, but the actual exhibit area is small and located in a Columbia College building, Definitely check out the second floor. They have an inventory of approximately 15000 photos, so they have lots of material for exhibits. In fact, there are new exhibits every couple of months. They have well known and lesser known photographers in their collection, all of them interesting and worth a look. I highly suggest checking out their website for the current and upcoming exhibits and events.

This is a nice little museum that you can kill an hour in. You can make reservations, but I didn't need to on a Thursday afternoon. I think a lot of people would assume a museum all about photography would be boring, but that's far from the truth!Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree
