About this event

The growing collection of works of bad art awaits your discerning eye. The Museum Of Bad Art (MOBA) has been collecting art that is “too bad to be ignored” since 1993. They analyze, compare to classic art, and share with thousands of fans around the world. In this introduction to MOBA you will discover unique pieces such as portraits that mistakenly resemble celebrities, utterly inaccurate human bodies, and unrecognizable famous landscapes. MOBA presents pieces from their collection, with an insightful, pithy, and often humorous commentary. 

For the safety of everyone attending this event, we appreciate your continued use of face masks.

  • Current local and state guidelines require everyone, regardless of vaccination status, wear masks indoors.
  • We have masks available if you did not bring one of your own.
