Founded in 1909 on the belief that art is for everyone, the Newark Museum of Art (NMOA) engages with the public to build a more equitable, kinder, and sustainable world. Today, the NMOA stewards collections of more than 300,000 artworks and artifacts in science and natural history. As the first institution to give support to modernism in America, the NMOA continues to pursue new definitions of cultural innovation and is among the 3% of U.S. museums that are nationally accredited.
The Museum’s 4.5 acre campus includes the National Historic Landmark Ballantine House, the Alice Ransom Dreyfuss Memorial Garden, and Horizon Plaza. The NMOA partners with the community to preserve and advocate for the arts, history and culture and to host special events such as the Newark Black Film Festival and the Newark Arts Festival. The NMOA puts the people of Newark, their creativity and strength at the center of its work, responding to the evolving interests of diverse audiences and critically examining its responsibility to equity.
