We’re building the next exhibition
Our next exhibition: Aware – Architecture and Senses opens on March 22. While we build the new exhibition, some areas of DAC have restricted access.
We are open and you can delve into our permanent collection: So Danish! and Changing our Footprint, an exhibition that raises the question of what the future of environmentally friendly architecture looks like.
After the exhibitions we invite you to take a coffee break in our Café on the 3rd floor
