About San Rocco Museum of Contemporary Art

The Museum of Contemporary Art San Rocco (Museo di arte contemporanea San Rocco) is a contemporary art museum housed in the restored 17th-century Palazzo of San Rocco in Trapani, Sicily. The museum presents sacred and secular art, including both permanent works and temporary, experimental projects that address spiritual, cultural and social themes.

The museum was founded in 2012 to exhibit a nucleus of the DiART diocesan collection of contemporary art, originally formed in 2004 at the seminary in Casa Santa, Erice. Over time, the Trapani institution has expanded its offering with additional acquisitions and contemporary works.
