Museum of Contemporary Art Jacksonville

Museum of Contemporary Art Jacksonville Review

In this loftlike downtown building, the former headquarters of the Western Union Telegraph Company, a permanent collection of 20th-century art shares space with traveling exhibitions. The museum encompasses five galleries and ArtExplorium, a highly interactive educational exhibit for kids, as well as a funky gift shop and Café Nola, open for lunch on weekdays and for dinner on Thursday and Friday. MOCA Jacksonville also hosts film series, and workshops throughout the year, and packs a big art-wallop into a relatively small 14,000 square feet. The Art Matters lecture series is free; Sunday is free for families; a once-a-month Art Walk is free to all.
