Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit: Benefit Auction 2022

Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit (MOCAD) presents exhibitions and programs that explore the best of contemporary art, connecting Detroit and the global art world. MOCAD is focused on art as a means to nurture social change and human understanding, reflecting our community. We encourage innovative experimentation by artists, musicians, makers, cultural producers and scholars to enrich all who participate and to educate visitors of all ages in the power of art. Whether from Detroit, or around the world, we welcome creative voices who can guide us to an equitable and inclusive future. We believe that art can change us, and it’s our responsibility to hold a space where challenge, acceptance, hope and beauty can coincide.

All proceeds from the Gala + Art Auction lifts MOCAD as a touchstone for art and community in Detroit. Your generosity allows for the day-to-day operations that are foundational to MOCAD’s imperatives, encouraging all forms of artistic innovation and experimentation. This support creates capacity for those challenges and hopes we hold as we work towards an equitable and inclusive future through artistic expression.
