The Contemporary Art Modern Project

The Museum of Contemporary Art (moca) is a museum located in the heart of downtown North Miami, Florida. The 23,000 sqft structure was designed by the internationally acclaimed architecture firm Gwathmey Siegel & Associates Architects, New York, which worked in conjunction with the Miami firm of Gelabert-Navia to create the building. The Museum of Contemporary Art expanded from the original Center of Contemporary Art, which was inaugurated in 1981 in a modest single gallery space.  The museum is a site for discovering new artists, contemplating the work of contemporary masters, and learning about our living cultural heritage. The stunning structure which houses MOCA has over 12,000 square-feet of exhibition space consisting of a large main gallery with moveable walls, a separate art pavilion, a gift shop, an art storage and preparation area, and administrative offices.  An outdoor courtyard is used for performances, evening film screenings and large art installations.
