Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art
Location: 594 Broadway, Suite 401, Manhattan
Hours: Varies
Admission: Varies.
The Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit arts
education organization dedicated to the collection, preservation, study and
presentation of one of the world's most popular art forms.
MoCCA’s mission is to promote greater understanding
and appreciation of the artistic, cultural and historical significance of comic and cartoon
art. To that end, the museum hosts exhibits and events, conducts ducational programs, and
serves as a resource for those conducting scholarly or professional research on comic and
cartoon art.
Each June for the last two years, the museum has
held its Annual MoCCA Art Festival at SoHo’s historic Puck Building (located at 295
Lafayette Street – only two short blocks east of the museum’s new home), drawing thousands
of comic and cartoon artists, art collectors, publishers, and fans to Lower Manhattan for
a one-day exhibition of new works and the opportunity to purchase a wide variety of comics
directly from the creators or their publishers.
