Small but perfectly formed. Gallery staff really knowledgeable and explain the exhibits well . It’s now free so there’s no reason not to visit frequently.

Lauren Yeager's "(216) 543-4949" is pure and pithy—in one, mercurial and marmoreal—ensconced and engaging—calling in digital sotto voce.

The myopia exhibit is a must see

A really incredible jewel in the city . Plus it doesn't maintain a permanent collection so the art is constantly changing!

Morgan Thomas

Interesting building, provocative contemporary art from local artist .

HISTORY

This Museum was founded in 1968 & was known as the “New Gallery ” until 1984 when it was renamed the MOCA. This museum focuses on artists from the Greater Cleveland area & northeast Ohio.

Disappointing... I love contemporary art . Not enough here on display to make it worthwhile though. I can count the number on display with just my fingers and toes.

The yellow stairwell was like heaven ????

Cynthia Drescher

Interesting building MC Escher-style stairway, but exhibitions are small and the average visitor won't be here more than an hour.
