Museum of Contemporary Art Australia
The Museum of Contemporary Art Australia shows contemporary art, mostly by Australian artists, in the former Maritime Services Board building, an Art Deco sandstone block on the western side of Circular Quay in The Rocks. The museum opened in 1991, and a modern wing designed by Sam Marshall was added in 2012; its exhibitions change through the year.
