🎫 TERM 2 - ON SALE NOW!! 🎫

Term 1 classes filled up in just a few days - and all our students are re-enrolling, so we’ve decided to DOUBLE the intake spaces for Term 2!! 🥳

All the group sizes are small, the activities are wickedly fun, and the educators are the most talented, engaging, creative teachers ever. This gorgeous little video is just a sneak peak of the action you’ll miss if you don’t enrol in MoPA’s Term 2 ART CLASS ❤️

Heaps of deets on our website - Or call us any time on 1800 00 MOPA (6672).

After a lil’ pause for Harmony Week celebrations, our regular programming (“THE ART OF NATURE”) is back.

Here’s a sneak peak at just some of the beautiful creations - we LOVE the inspiration nature provides for wonderful creativity!! Just gorgeous. xx

Harmony Week is well underway at MoPA and the Museums are filling up with gorgeous lil’ artworks that represent the exact diversity we’re celebrating!

The joy these community contributions create is hard to put into words. Just… LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.

Join in on Harmony Week celebrations - all activations are in play all the way up until close of play Sunday (23rd March).

WE CAN’T THINK OF A MORE IMPORTANT CELEBRATION…

Every one of us (including YOU!) is unique and special. Harmony Week is a celebration of these differences.

To help visualise and celebrate the diversity of our gorgeous MoPA community we’re inviting guests to decorate their own character and we’ll add your art to our community collage in the museums. Starts Monday!

BE INSPIRED... BY NATURE!

As the Autumn breezes blow in, and the bugs fill the garden, we’re reminded that nature truly is one of the greatest sources of creative inspiration. MoPA’s educators have been digging in the dirt (not even joking)... and, inspired by all the furry, wriggly, winged things they found, they’ve designed some gorgeous new activities that celebrate nature.

“THE ART OF NATURE” runs from March 3 to May 31. All the activities and art supplies are included with your ticket.

Working with people and organisations that are values-aligned has always been such an important aspect of the work we do at MoPA. Our guests, our team, our partners, they’re all hugely passionate about play and creativity.

And when the team at @tonies_anz chose to celebrate their Australian launch at MoPA, and arranged for @emmamemmamemma to drop in for a dance party, we were absolutely THRILLED.

The team were a true delight to work with and the launch of @tonies_anz was a huge success. Wishing you all a happy and successful 2025!! x

Mmmmm… Heavenly! 😍🎨🧑‍🎨

Q: Is it a real car?
A: Yes, and each has a special place in our ♥️

Q: Do you ever clean it?
A: Yes, but the timing is a hot debate. 🧽 There is so much beauty in the layers, but also purity and timeless charm in its bare form.

Q: How do you choose the colours?
A: Have you ever stirred up a slurpy? 🥤 If we’re not careful, it ends up brown; our team have become experts in avoiding that! 😆

Q: Why? Just why?
A: All our exhibits are thoughtfully crafted to support early learning and creativity. Our world is full of boundaries and conformity (in most cases, for good reason!). The MoPA Art Car exhibit 🚗 is designed to give children an opportunity to do something that doesn’t “feel” within the confines impressed upon us; to help them see, experience first-hand, and learn, that creativity can so often be found in media and forms we never imagined would combine.

🏆 WIN WIN WIN 🏆

Hands up if the Art Car is one of your faves 🤚?
