Museum of Northwest Art

MoNA collects, interprets, and presents contemporary art from across the Northwest, including Alaska, British Columbia, California, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington, fostering essential conversations and encouraging creativity. The museum aims to provide a rich experience with thoughtful context and personalized attention for visitors from our diverse community. The vital and growing Permanent Collection of over 2,500 art objects and an archive are at the core of the museum’s mission to connect people with the art, diverse cultures and environments of the Northwest.  

The museum's acclaimed education program, MoNA Link, has served over 8,250 students and trained 157 teachers in the school districts of Anacortes, Bellingham, Burlington-Edison, Concrete, La Conner, Mount Vernon, Mount Baker, Sedro-Woolley and Stanwood-Camano. MoNA Link provides comprehensive art education for students from pre-K to high school.  

The outreach program meets the needs of the underserved throughout our community by providing more opportunities to access and engage with art.  

The museum offers free admission and is open seven days a week to ensure access to all.
