Now Open: Fall River Museum of Contemporary Art
Brittni Harvey 17 TX co-founded the Fall River Museum of Contemporary Art during October of 2020 with Harry Gould Harvey IV.
Fall River Museum of Contemporary Art is a contemporary art museum located on the ground floor of the present day Merrow building, one of the historic granite mills located on Bedford street in Fall River, Massachusetts. Jesse Sullivan 18 PT, who was integral to launching the space, serves as co-founder/co-director of the museum.
FR MoCA hopes to exist in a perpetual state of experimentation seeking to question how art institutions can best serve their host communities. We hope to tether together opportunities with global partners to illuminate the shadows of our post industrial beacon and allocate cultural resources to a city in need. Our goal is to create culturally relevant programming that is in dialog with the global contemporary art world, while engaging regional histories and shared experiences. We seek to make decisions based on the social ecology of our wonderful and diverse city, providing time and space for the existing communities and future residents of Fall River and the greater south coast region.
