MIT List Visual Arts Center

The List Visual Arts Center is a creative laboratory that provides artists with a space to freely experiment and push existing boundaries.

As the contemporary art museum at MIT, the List Center has three gallery spaces where curators present a dynamic program of six to nine contemporary exhibitions annually. Typically, the List Center offers an artist their first museum solo presentation. Exhibitions are accompanied by a broad range of educational programs for the public and the MIT community, special events, and scholarly publications.

The galleries and all programs are free and open to the public.

Beyond exhibitions and programs, the List Center also maintains MIT’s permanent art collection which includes the Institute’s Public Art Collection, the Student Lending Collection, and the Campus Lending Collection.
