Museum of Modern Art, Santa Cruz

Located a few blocks from the Plaza 24 de Septiembre, the Museum of Modern Art is housed in an old colonial building that was once used as barracks and later as a school. The building has a large open courtyard in the middle, just as many buildings dating from the 1600's used to have. The building has 10 rooms, but a only a few of them are used for the gallery. Inside the museum, you can see the works of national and international artists from the 20th and 21st centuries. There are no permanent displays, thus there is always something new to be admired. The museum has no entry fee and does allow photography, but without flash.
