MOCA Toronto grew out of the Art Gallery of North York and the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art (MOCCA), founded in 1999. In 2018 it reopened in the landmark Tower Automotive Building on Sterling Road, a 55,000 sq ft former factory in the Lower Junction. It is a non-collecting museum that stages rotating exhibitions, commissions and sound works by Canadian and international artists, with its ground floor always free.
