MOYA: art beneath the church vaults

Colour on the canvas, light through tall windows: at MOYA in Oosterhout, contemporary art is given room. Museum of Young Art combines exhibitions with a gallery in the former Sint-Antoniuskerk.

A place to look longer

The image above shows Waar Kleur Stroomt by Alexandra Puscas, one of the Boundless images supplied by MOYA. During your visit, look at how a work relates to the space around it: what do you notice up close that you miss from further away?

Art that keeps changing

MOYA describes itself as a place where museum and gallery come together. The programme centres on contemporary art, with influences from fashion and design. Both young and established artists are given a place there. Because the exhibitions change, it is worth checking before your visit which artists are on show at that time.

Alongside the exhibitions, MOYA has a gallery. If you want to know more about a work, or about the possibility of buying it, you can ask the museum. Of course, a visit to the exhibition can also simply stay at looking.

On the agenda

From 2 October: Boundless

MOYA announces Boundless for the public from 2 October 2026. The announcement on the museum website mentions six different worlds, including monumental painting installations and glass. An end date has not yet been given.

MOYA supplied the images on this page for its presentation of Boundless. Check the current programme and visiting days with MOYA.

Viewing tip

Choose one work that catches your attention. Look at it first from a distance and then close up. Which colour, shape or material texture did you miss at first glance?

Before you go

The regular visiting days are Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 11.00 to 17.00. According to the visitor page, MOYA is only available for groups and events from Tuesday to Thursday. Around exhibition changeovers, visiting days may vary; check your chosen date in advance.
