MoCo Arts

MoCo Arts is a 30-year-old, family-centered, nonprofit arts education organization in downtown Keene, offering classes in dance, theatre and multi-arts camps for children ages 18 months to 18 years+. Under the direction of our highly-regarded, experienced artistic staff, MoCo Arts provides an inclusive, nurturing, supportive atmosphere designed to enrich the lives of our students as well as the collective life of our community. As part of the education process, MoCo Arts provides professional performance experience for our students and family-friendly entertainment for audiences of all ages at our Black Box Theatre on Roxbury Street as well as other stages, including The Redfern Arts Center at Keene State College and the Colonial Theatre. We welcome all students where they are in their movement and creative arts journey – beginners through advanced. Tuition assistance is available as part of our commitment to remain accessible. In 2016 MoCo embarked on a new journey, fundraising $5 Million to build MoCo a new home, a 17,000 sq ft arts education center in downtown Keene. This state-of-the-art facility remained open during COVID-19 for classes and MoCo's teaching staff simultaneously livestreamed classes for at-risk students and families. MoCo Arts remains committed to "Arts for All!" through inclusive, welcoming arts education taught by professionals in a supportive environment.
