MOCA Education and Visitor Engagement sparks and deepens connections between visitors and contemporary art through welcoming front-of-house operations; stimulating  conversations; and sustained, enrollment-based programs designed to create lasting, transformative impact.

MOCA Education and Visitor Engagement works:

  • to create a welcoming museum experience that encourages personal meaning making;
  • to make education more collaborative, inclusive, and learner-centered;
  • to nurture intellectual growth through experiences with art; and
  • for everyone to have access to the transformative power of art.
