The Mobile Museum Authority - For almost 40 years, Artrain has developed and delivered world class art and education programs to under-resourced communities. Artrain's mobile facility is the only one of its kind designed to carry original artwork across the country. Winner of the National Medal for Museum Service, Artrain travels to communities across the United States fulfilling its mission to enrich lives and build communities through the arts. Since its founding in 1971, Artrain has traveled coast to coast, making 845 community visits and welcoming 3.2 million visitors.
Connecting People to Art - Artrain brings the museum experience to children and adults, often for the first time. It creates a unique cultural experience, de-mystifying the world of art, fostering dialogues and helping young and old alike spark their own creativity.
Energizing Communities - Artrain brings diverse community groups together, providing guidance in regard to fundraising, organizing and promoting an exhibit. A powerful catalyst, Artrain sparks the formation of local and regional arts councils, strengthens art education programs, builds community pride and spurs downtown revitalization efforts.
