Description
What was once the Boulder Arts Center is, today, the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art. Commonly called BMoCA (pronounced "Be-Mocha") by the locals, the Boulder Arts Center was established in 1972 by local artists as a gallery space. The organization has called the historic landmark warehouse building home since 1976, and the current facilities feature three galleries and a 100-seat, black box theater. Rotating art exhibits feature the works of local, national, and international contemporary artists. With more than 10,000 square feet of space, BMoCA has close ties with the community and participates in educational outreach programs from summer workshops to art lectures. BMoCA is located just off Boulder's Central Park on 13th St, next to another Boulder staple, the Dushanbe Teahouse.
