WHAT WE DO & WHY WE DO IT

The Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia (MOCA GA) was founded in 2000 to fill a void felt in the Georgia art community--it lacked a museum solely dedicated to collecting and exhibiting contemporary Georgia artists.  Since its founding, MOCA GA has succeeded in raising awareness and opportunities for the artists working in our state while creating connections between these artists and the community.  It is our goal to strengthen Georgia as a place where artists can live, work, and thrive and to serve as a platform to launch local artists and their works into the global artistic conversation.

MOCA GA’s mission is to collect and archive significant, contemporary works by the artists of the state of Georgia. To place our artists in a global context, the Museum's exhibitions include Georgia artists and artists from around the world. Our programs promote the visual arts by creating a forum for active interchange between artists and the community.  The Museum fulfills this mission through an extensive program calendar of exhibitions, artist and curator talks, educational programming, and events.
