The Museum of Contemporary Art (MoCA) located within the walls of Neufreistadt city is a part of the common lands of the CDS. As a part of CDS community-owned properties, the intent of this law is to allow for diversification in its curation and ensure that the MoCA remains a vibrant part of the life of the community.

1) The Representative Assembly will accept applications for a curator from any citizen in good standing and appoint 1 person for each appointment time period.
2) Appointments will be for a time period of 6 months: either August to January or February to July.
3) Applicants must provide a brief outline of their intended exhibitions.
4) Appointed curators are required to produce at least one new exhibition per term, to ensure that MoCA is and remains vibrant.
5) Appointed curators may decide to keep or remove any other existing artworks in place, and may decide upon the theme and application of their exhibits, which may be in the form of visual arts, SL or RL, or performing arts, or a mix
6) Curators must create appropriate signage for the displays.
7) Curators may appoint other CDS citizens to assist in any way they wish, as long as they keep to the rules.
