The Museum of Contemporary Religious Art (MOCRA) is the world's first interfaith museum of contemporary art that engages religious and spiritual themes. MOCRA highlights the ongoing dialogue between contemporary artists and the world's faith traditions, as well as the ways visual art can encourage and facilitate interfaith understanding. MOCRA is located on the campus of Saint Louis University in St. Louis, Missouri.[1][2][3][4]
