Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego offers two locations throughout the San Diego region, including a downtown location and a second location in La Jolla. The museum was established in 1950 and preserves an internationally-renowned collection of more than 4,700 contemporary and modern artworks across genres such as painting, sculpture, photography, video, and installation, with a focus on raising the voices of emerging and under-recognized artists. Significant special collections include mid-century Pop Art, Latin American art, and artworks from the Tijuana region. The museum's downtown location is housed within the historic Jacobs Building, which formerly served as the baggage building for the Santa Fe Depot. At the La Jolla location, visitors can peruse the Edwards Garden Gallery and shop at the museum's X Store.
