Mission Statement
The Kunsthalle Mainz is an exhibition space for international contemporary art. The Kunsthalle Mainz presents contemporary artistic concepts which depict and convey topics of current relevance to art, politics and society. With a programme of outstanding exhibitions
(Ed Atkins, Bruce Nauman, Roman Signer, Monica Bonvicini), it has set itself the task of helping the public gain a better understanding of art and its themes, and of establishing Mainz as a location for art from all over the world and for discourse on current issues.
The Kunsthalle Mainz is an initiator and stimulator. It is conceived as a place of active reflection, experimentation and dialogue. In tours, workshops and lectures it conveys art’s relevance, its potential for the education of the senses, and its impact on perception and society.

Kunsthalle Mainz aims to make contemporary art accessible to as many people as possible. We offer an inclusive, multilingual programme, some of which is free of charge. Individual tours in simple language, with a sign language interpreter or with detailed descriptions of the works are also available by arrangement. We are working on providing detailed information on accessibility for each exhibition in time.

People with disabilities (from 50% GdB) receive the reduced admission price, while accompanying persons of severely disabled people with the „B“ mark on their disabled pass have free admission. Free and discounted tickets are available on presentation of the relevant ID at the ticket office.
