Since its founding in 1974, MoCA Arlington has been committed to connecting the community to contemporary art and artists. The museum’s extensive education program, which includes programs for children and adults, is core to this mission. Classes and workshops take place at the museum and, since January of 2024, at MoCA Arlington’s new Innovation Studio + Store in National Landing. Through partnerships with community organizations, schools, and universities, MoCA Arlington also hosts classes, workshops, and enrichment programs across northern Virginia.

All of MoCA Arlington’s educational programs are led by experienced artist instructors. Through their talent and dedication, MoCA Arlington is able to offer instruction in a wide range of media, from drawing and painting to photography and ceramics. In Best of Class, MoCA Arlington is proud to highlight a selection of work created by some of these artist instructors as part of their own artistic practices.
