About Arts Mission Oak Cliff

Arts Mission Oak Cliff (AMOC) is a 501(c)(3) community arts and coworking center in Dallas that provides affordable rehearsal, studio, and performance space for local artists and small arts companies. Housed in a repurposed 1929 church, AMOC combines production facilities (a sanctuary performance space and a basement of studios) with programming such as artist residencies, classes, workshops, and subsidized rehearsal hours. Founded in 2017 by artists and local supporters, the organization has grown into a neighborhood creative hub that emphasizes accessibility, equitable pay for artists, and support for emerging work. In recent years AMOC has expanded subsidized programming, participated in TACA’s Arts Accelerator, and received foundation and municipal arts funding while reporting operating revenues in the low hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Notable achievements

TI Foundation Grant (2024)

Received a $50,000 grant from the Texas Instruments Foundation to support programming and to fund accessibility improvements, including planning for an ADA lift.

Subsidized Rehearsal Impact (2024)

Expanded its Subsidized Rehearsal Space Program to support dozens of local artists and groups — reporting support for 40–56 artists/groups and subsidizing hundreds of rehearsal hours (over 448 hours reported in 2024).

Historic building restoration and opening (2017)

Restored and repurposed the 1929 Winnetka Congregational Church into a multifunctional arts campus, opening AMOC as an artist-centered performance and studio venue in February 2017.
