The 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, opened in 2004, displays many varieties of unconventional and modern art. The exterior of the building itself is exciting as the shape of a UFO. Inside this museum, you will find amazing modern commissioned works that you can touch as well as see. Some of the art includes a green wall covered with real locally grown plants, spirals made of colored glass, and a swimming pool that gives people the illusion that they are standing at the bottom.
