MIMA connects art, people and ideas to empower creative lives and positively contribute to society.

As the creative heart of Teesside University, MIMA is dedicated to collaborative learning, research and innovation.

An international art gallery and museum, we commission, collect and re-think modern and contemporary art.

We build and celebrate creativity and support change towards an open and inclusive future, through dedicated work with our many communities and with our students.

We are proud to sponsor the Culture Awards this year.

MIMA is an accredited museum, a Plus Tate gallery and an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation.
