The Museum of Modern Art, along with being one of the most important contemporary art institutions in the world, has been manufacturing and distribution well-designed merchandise for over 30 years. A division of the Museum that began by inviting artists to design holiday cards has grown into a diverse business, distributing home and personal accessories, as well as stationery and holiday products. Unlike other manufacturers, ever item we sell is reviewed by the curators of MoMA’s Department of Architecture and Design. In fact, many of the products are represented in the MoMA design collection itself, which has been an important repository of utilitarian design since 1932.

By working directly with contemporary designers and artists, MoMA integrates new and unique materials and production methods to create products that combine good design, utility and convenience. MoMA Wholesale works to develop and distribute merchandise that reflects The Museum of Modern Art’s commitment to providing the public with examples of modern art and good design.

Proceeds from the sale of these products are used to support the Museum’s programs.
