Founded in 2021, Moscow Cotemporary (MosCo) was born of the vital need for a contemporary art venue following the pandemic closure of the University of Idaho’s Prichard Art Gallery. Through exhibitions, programming, and an extensive arts education and outreach strategy, MosCo fosters free artistic expression, enhanced cultural understanding, and the open exchange of ideas. The organization offers a platform for current, emerging, and future artists to freely express their creativity and engage with the contemporary art scene.

“Our grantees range from small arts organizations with one staff member to major museums, yet they all provide essential resources for artists as well as innovative platforms for critical cultural dialogue. Creative risk-taking is at the heart of this country’s most meaningful social, political, and cultural developments, therefore we are proud to stand behind artist-centered organizations that support experimental practice.”
