Yes. We have a number of local companies that can provide excellent service for your party needs.
Does MOCA Jacksonville provide tables, chairs, or other rental items?
The Museum has a limited stock of items available at no cost. To make planning your event easier, we also can coordinate the rental of additional equipment.

balance of the rental fee is due one week prior to the event date.

To protect the objects displayed in the building and the building itself, the following are prohibited: glitter, confetti, birdseed, bubbles, balloons, open flames, candles, and live animals.
What types of events are not allowed?
