This is a beautiful gem hidden in Jersey City just minutes from the JSQ PATH station. Dont be fooled by the exterior, its not a factory (anymore lol). I took my 11 yo daughter and her friend here and they had a great experience. We had a guided tour, it wasnt rushed and full of information. The exhibits are presented in a spacious atmosphere that still feels intimate. There are also classes and special events held here that a mostly little to no cost.

It is a nice facility with first floor displaying arts. Third floor has cozy library with great variety of books you can read while youre sipping on a cup of coffee offered by the coffee shop right within the library. Or its a coffee house with great varieties of books to read.5th floor - businesses, artistic offices. Throughout the building there different art installations.

Generous, sprawling, raw space invites creativity. Parking, elevators, & handicapped/stroller accessibility to all galleries is a necessary requirement. Some galleries inhabited by gifted artistic souls, while some wormed their way in through chutzpa-- let the masses decide...

What a great building. Very good vibe from all the artists. Great space and lots of new work.

Great space and exhibition full of unique work. Free large parking area is definitely a plus!

An amazing space not too far from NYC. The free guided tour is worth doing as it allows you access into areas that you may not be able to visit otherwise.

Just go!!! Really! One of the treasures I was allowed to find out.... I couldnt believe it. You get a free tour through the 5 floors and in the basement you can see artists work in progress. Its a must go when you are in jersey city. Its free!... You can even see sketches from Andy Warhol and Arnulf Rainer... beside their own exhibitions!

Great place !!Nice architecture !!A lot of space, and so many talented artists here !!(Fashion designer, painter, sculptor and much much more )Easy access from Manhattan with the path on the 6Av-14street (+7min walk)

Mana is a wonderland of arts- beautiful warehouse exterior with clean white-wall-loft interiors. I’ve visited for arts talks and open houses and there is always much left to discover when I have to head out the doors. There is free parking and very close the JSQ path which makes visiting very quick and painless.

The building it self is beautiful and interesting. The galleries and large and varied. We went on a Saturday and it wasn’t that crowded. Also the tour was free!

So many amazing artists under one roof! One of our favorites galleys to visit was by the renowned Jonathan Mannion. Jonathan has photographed over 500 of the most important rappers, actors, athletes, artists, designers, and tastemakers of his era.

Huge space. Definitely recommend going for a visit during an open house day or in the afternoon for a tour. Very cool asset

Its a very old enormous factory thats now an art exhibit. The place is gorgeous and has every type of art displayed. Theres also cafeterias and lounges to hang out in. You need an entire day at least just to get through all their art.

Undeniablygreat. The art youll see and touchand artists youll meet.Photography andpaintings, sculptures, dance, and more.Theres even coffee.So grateful to have the Mana in our backyard.No need to cross the river to see or buy great art.

A very unusual place. The open house was amazing, some artists are world class.

Amazing place to visit.

Cool place for art! I liked how an old warehouse was converted into an art space! Will return!

Amazing space

A great space with amazing art. Definitely worth taking a tour.

Walk by art. Its nice to pass by!! Area is clean and safe

The amount of awesome work showcased here is impressive! Lots of cool work, a bunch of interesting galleries, and the more you look... The more amazing things you will find!

Would really like to see more.

One of the most incredible collections of art and artists in Jersey City. Anytime they have an open house, one must prioritize a visit. It could take all day to see and appreciate Manas offerings. A highlight of the city, and a must-see.

Wonderful facility. Professional and helpful staff. Interesting mix of art.

Great overall. A little too stuffy for me with the staff.

Discover amazing art exhibitions at Mana. I highly recommend to visit here.

We went for a concert at the cultural center. A nice band Chill Brown performed a few songs... Nice music!

They have really cool events here, particularly the open mics run by Rashad Wright.

Amazing spaces incl cafes, gallery spaces, artist studios. High ceilings throughout, fixtures and unique yet iconic.

Grand opening today! Gr8! Working art studios. Very creative!

Mana Contemporary was and is one of the best things to happen to New Jersey since they built those tunnels and bridges so famous they need not be mentioned!A current exhibitions at Mana’s galleries is “Dan Flavin: cornered fluorescent light.”Checkout my images… I did my best to capture, but you must see this exhibition to truly experience the beginning of life!

Worth a visit but look out for hours ofoperation. .

Best Dogs in Joisey!

Loved their open house programming. Excited to see this space open up in Jersey City

Outstanding !!

Great space for artist.

Very cool and interesting contemporary art gallery spaces and artists studios you can visit. Free entrance and free guided tours daily.

Amazing place for local art.

Huge space without traffic to conduct business in a very discrete location

Many good things to say just make sure the artists are there to see, many do not post or keep their hours.

Food is great, the prices and the waiter is super great

Awesome art venue space.

Even though this is not New York, the art is amazing...the curators and the staff are fabulous, knowledgeable and helpful. I would go here again and again.

Really cool place. Lots of unique art and interesting people. Definitely worth checking out.

MANA is one of the best things about Jersey City NJ. Its an incredible place where brilliant creative artists work to produce and present beautiful art in all media. MANA is a must see destination for everyone who wants to see cutting edge art.

Amazing artwork, great staff.

Would highly recommend this place!

It is a place we all need to see at least once in our lives.

Nice place with interesting artists. If you dont like pretentious NY hipsters, dont go here!!! For any event therell be a huge crowd of them. I like it mainly for people watching....

Cool studio space

Loved it

This is the best art museum Ive ever been to. There is street art, a workshop for sculptures, and there are even artists who live on site that will actually talk about what they are doing there. They dont advertise so thats why no one has ever heard of it, but it is definitely a hidden gem. Strongly recommend and two thumbs up!

The best part scene in Jersey City

Had a great experience. What a great environment for artists to explore and create.

Amazing building with so many artists and gallery spaces. I look forward to exploring it more.

What a gem and not so well known. Schedule a private tour. Highly recommend visit. View artists working and private art collections.

Loved the variety and creativity of the art as well as the people watching.

Very cool space if youre into art. They offer tours tuesday to saturday at 3pm. Theres a ton to see there!

Excellent event, Amazing experience at MANA

Amazing gallery and studio space!

Terrible

You could spend weeks here. But you only get six hours on Saturdays

Saw a live dance show here, the show was amazing. We missed the actual tour of the building due to timing.

Huge space supporting local and international artists. Amazing!

Talented people

I loved the art

This is just a fun place for art and events. A hidden gem!

Great if you love art with attitude. Very cool vibe!

The best way to describe this place is Disneyland for artists
