In 2004, the American Bible Society's Board of Trustees voted to enhance the reach and impact of The Gallery at the American Bible Society by expanding its vision through the creation of the Museum of Biblical Art, an independently chartered 501(c)(3) educational institution.
As a demonstration of its confidence in the future of the Museum of Biblical Art, the American Bible Society has entered into a partnership agreement with MOBIA whereby funding from the Bible Society will provide a major portion of MOBIA's operational overhead for five years, allowing the Museum to grow toward full fiscal independence. The commitment by the American Bible Society to confer independence on, and nurture, the Museum of Biblical Art is unusual in that few institutions with a proven program are willing to allow that program to stand on its own as an independent entity.
MOBIA would like to particularly thank the American Bible Society for its continued financial support.
MOBIA is grateful for the generous funding provided by its benefactors, corporate sponsors and other donors during our current fiscal year
