The museum organizes lectures, film, temporary exhibitions, and special events. It also dedicates significant resources to K-12 interdisciplinary visual art history, including an annual student-curated exhibition of selected works from the museum collection, an art/maths festival, an art/science festival and a visual art and poetry collage festival.
MMoFA is a Blue Star Museum[1] that offers free admission to military families. It routinely participates in the annual Smithsonian magazine Museum Day, and it is a registered host for the international Slow Art Day.[2]
