The Museum of the University of Alicante (MUA) constitutes a pioneering project in the Spanish university setting due to its innovative architectural conception and its museographic proposal, based in the alternation of temporary scientific artistic and patrimonial exhibitions.

Apart from its own museographic collection, integrated by contemporary artistic works of creators such as Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Eduardo Chillida, Eusebi Sempere, Arcadi Blasco, etc., the MUA presents each season a score of temporary exhibitions, among samples of contemporary art, dissemination activities of the university research and institutional projects in which all the society of Alicante is involved. Thus, the university museum becomes an open space for cultural dissemination, in which art, music, cinema, architecture and research in different fields come together.
