Located near Columbus Circle and Lincoln Center, MOBIA opened in May 2005 as the U.S.’s only scholarly museum celebrating art and the Bible. Incorporated as a not-for-profit educational institution, MOBIA takes no position on religion, only that the role of the Bible in literature and art is culturally profound. MOBIA organizes temporary exhibitions revealing the extraordinary diversity and richness of art inspired by the Bible through the centuries, including various media (painting, sculpture, graphic arts, mixed media, new media, etc.), styles, artistic movements and schools, etc. We believe that an understanding of biblical themes, imagery, and symbolism is essential to cultural literacy, irrespective of one’s religious background or beliefs.
