The Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (MCASD) invites all audiences to experience our world, our region, and ourselves through the prism of contemporary art. We are excited to welcome you back to MCASD’s Flagship location in La Jolla. Discover the new collection galleries and the special exhibitions. Explore the museum's art park, sculpture garden and seaside terraces. While at MCASD, visit The Kitchen, a full-service café offering breakfast and lunch Wednesday through Sunday from 8:30 AM to 4 PM. With seating for 80 guests exclusively outdoors, the 2,420 square foot courtyard, Gartner Court, is set against the backdrop of a historic former residence designed by 20th-century architect Irving J. Gill. Comfortable and charming, yet contemporary, best describe the appeal of The Kitchen’s garden café. See the menu: MCASD.org/thekitchen
