While the MCA is closed to protect the safety of our visitors and staff through social distancing, we’re still active in the digital space—not only through our website and social media, but also on everyone’s new favorite socializing, working, and doing-anything space: Zoom.

Many of our meetings and other events are taking place through teleconferencing applications. Like many other new Zoom users, we’ve discovered the fun of Zoom’s virtual background feature, which allows users to select images to use as a backdrop during video calls. In fact, our recent online Family Day activity used Zoom backgrounds as a tool to explore artworks!

Now, you can liven up your Zoom call or virtually visit the MCA with one of these custom backgrounds. (Right-click on your favorite image and select “Save Image As” to download—or, if you’re on a laptop, click your trackpad with two fingers!)

For tips on how to change your Zoom background to one of these beautiful images of the MCA and our exhibitions, check out Zoom’s Help Center.
