- MOMAR seeks to broaden the parameters of the fine art world by fostering a multi-disciplinary interaction among innovators in painting, music, poetry, performance and the visual arts.
- MOMAR encourages innovation and challenges convention in Art, but reveres the traditional artistic values of beauty, craft, spirituality and history.
- MOMAR rejects the notion that art can be valued or devalued on a purely commercial level.
- MOMAR seeks to create a new approach to art patronage that includes but extends beyond the conventions of financial support and criticism, and allows for nontraditional contributions to and from the community, including volunteering, charity work and education.
- MOMAR is founded on the principle that Art has a conscience, is relevant and can foment positive social change. MOMAR believes that artists are responsible for illuminating truth.
- MOMAR answers the eternal question "What Is Art?" with another question: "what isn't?"
- MOMAR encourages interaction between artists and audience, and partners at will with like-minded organizations.
- MOMAR is finite. It is not an ongoing concern. Its building and its organization will disappear.
- MOMAR can, and will, party. |

The whole day has gone by
Children had an ice cream party outside the gallery
I shot pictures to use as invites for the opening party
Tubs of ice cream
Chocolate
Vanilla
And strawberry
Taken from a restaurant shut down next door
A whole box of whip cream canisters
Were sucked dry of nitrous
And then emptied all over the sidewalk
The museum of modern arthur
Has now officially opened
As children screamed in states of sugar euphoria
Paving the way to our gates
With endless amounts of ice cream
This is the best kind of omen
Its gonna be
A great summer
In brooklyn
