Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art

Since opening in 1994, Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art has had a strong commitment to its mission: enriching lives through the experience of contemporary art by exhibiting, collecting, and educating in a free and welcoming environment.

Kemper Museum boasts a growing Permanent Collection that uniquely bridges modern and contemporary works of art featuring artists such as Louise Bourgeois, Barbara Chase-Riboud, Keltie Ferris, Helen Frankenthaler, Hans Hofmann, Rashid Johnson, Joan Mitchell, Richard Mosse, Georgia O’Keeffe, and Ursula von Rydingsvard.

The Museum’s celebrated Café Sebastienne serves lunch and brunch with a commitment to locally-sourced, simple but elegant dishes, and the museum's Shop offers one-of-a-kind artwork and gifts. Special exhibitions, installations, lectures, and workshops, as well as free youth, teen, and family programs are regularly hosted at the Museum.
