The Museum of Pocket Art began ten years ago in response to an idea by author Walter Mosley. Everyone should carry with them a small artwork in a pocket to enrich their day and share with others. MoPA took this idea and organized it into a formal venue for contemporary artists and patrons. MoPA introduces artwork from contemporary artists in an intimate and personal way. The Museum displays works of art created to fit inside a wallet, business-card-sized. MoPA shows at the opening of other art exhibits, or “leaches” the reception.
