The MOAK 4-State Regional Exhibition is intended to recognize and encourage artists working in all media who reside in the four-state region of Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Kansas.
MOAK was inaugurated in 1990 as MOAK Crafts. In 1992, the show was broadened to include all media and was renamed MOAK 4-State Regional Exhibition. In 1996, the Friends of the Springfield Art Museum became the exhibit organizer and sponsor. From 2002 onward, the Museum has been both organizer and sponsor of the exhibition.
The exhibit is held biennially, alternating with Prints U.S.A. Judges for the exhibition are selected on a rotating basis from one of the four states. A number of cash and Museum purchase awards are available for each exhibition.
The next exhibition is scheduled for 2012.
