In February we are going to have some very special days at MoPA to celebrate Victoria’s enormous Chinese community.
Chinese Community Days:
Mon 17th Feb in Sandringham
Wed 19th Feb in Thomastown
Fri 21st Feb in Geelong
We will dance at our dance party to Chinese childrens music, our books will be read in chinese languages, and even our signage will be translated. So if you’d like to get together with other families of the Chinese community, we’ll see you down here at MoPA! We expect these days to be very popular, but we do only have limited space available, so please be sure to jump online and book now to secure your spot. See you all then!

Grandparents are FREE for FEB!! ❤️
Yep. That’s right. FREE. So what are we waiting for? Let’s get out there and cut some intergeneration shapes on the MoPA D-floor!!
To celebrate the beautiful role grandparents play in our lives and our families, we’ve decided to rename February to “Forever Young February” here at MoPA.
Now… The bouncers are under strict instruction to shuffle all grandparents to the front of the queue - and waive their ticket price... All. February. Long!
Note: We do still require that grandparents book online - but only to help us manage the comfy capacity limitations we maintain at MoPA (ticket prices at the checkout for grandparents are $0).
And so - Meemaw, Nene, Gigi, Glam, Pa, Zayde, Pop, Babu, Grandad, Gramps and Abuelo - we’ll see you ALL on the dance floor at MoPA this FEB, to show these young folk how that chicken dance SHOULD be done! 💃🕺🐔🎉
Term 1 Art Classes start in just 2 weeks (Feb 3rd)!! 🥳
Our Thomastown, Sandringham and Geelong Museum’s ALL still have a handful of spaces left for the Monday and Tuesday afternoon classes. Do NOT miss out - jump onto the website now to secure your enrolment in the 8 week Term 1 program!! 😘
This is going to be FUUUUNNNNN!!!!
