CAC is located in an architectural gem in the heart of downtown Cincinnati,
designed by Iraqi - British architect Zaha Hadid. The Lois and Richard Rosenthal Center for
Contemporary Art was heralded by The New York Times as “the most important American
building to be completed since the end of the cold war” and was lauded for its community
- centric approach to the design process.
