MoCA is a must-see for any art lover visiting Chicago. If you're going to visit and are serious about art, then plan at least a full day visit or even break it into two days! You won't regret it!

MCA is a great place for all ages. They have nice collections and very good art gallery. My children learned a lot and are asking for next visit, I will definitely visit there again.
