“The MOCA Cube is a wonderful moving representation of the museum and its philosophy: being cutting edge while still being fun, cool, and accessible,” said Deborah Broder, director of MOCA. “The MOCA Cube Tour is an outreach opportunity to reconnect with existing and future patrons, engage local artists, and build excitement and awareness about the exciting art and community events happening at museum.”
These outreach programs include educational lectures from UNF Art & Design faculty; school tours for over 7,000 children annually and summer art classes; “Voice of the People,” a fourth grade literacy-based arts initiative proven to improve writing skills for underserved children; and “Rainbow Artists,” which uses art and creative activities to promote socialization and social interaction of children with autism.
