MOTI closed from 1 January 2017 with the intention of reopening the building in spring 2017 as Stedelijk Museum Breda, a merger with Breda's Museum.[4]

Buildingedit
De Beyerd in 2012
MOTI is housed in one of the oldest buildings in Breda. Mention is first found of it in the archives of 1246 as a hospice in Breda. The function of a hospice at the time was to provide care and shelter to pilgrims and other strangers. The De Beyerd building lay just outside the built-up area on the road which led to Den Bosch. There was a city gate near to De Beyerd, which was known as the Hospice Gate. In 1956 it became a cultural centre, the Beyerd. Between 1980 and 2005 it remained a centre for the illustrative art, especially modern art.
The building has been a national heritage site (rijksmonument) since 1966.[6]
Activitiesedit
Besides the prominent exhibitions, the Graphic Design Museum also organizes multiple activities like tours, workshops and children's parties.
