Museum of Outdoor Arts (MOA) is a non-profit museum and gallery based in Englewood, Colorado.
It was founded in 1981 by John W. Madden, Jr. and his daughter, Cynthia Madden Leitner. Open 365 days a year, the outdoor sculpture garden combines fine art, architecture, and landscape design. The MOA holds temporary indoor exhibits, special events, and collaborative performances designed to exemplify its commitment to visual and performing arts as a crucial part of community life.[1]
Museum of Outdoor Arts owns Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre and currently leases the space to Anschutz Entertainment Group after its contract expired with LiveNation in 2013.[2]
The museum's collections include a limestone Medici lion sculpture.[3]
