MoPA Gift Cards can be used to purchase anything at MoPA, including tickets, memberships, parties, coffees, food and more. To ensure your recipient enjoys the maximum value possible, MoPA Gift Cards last for 3-years and can be used across any number of separate purchases!
Option 1: Digital Gift Card
Purchase a digital gift card right now, online! Add a personalised message and email the details directly to yourself (to print out, or forward to your recipient), or use our system to schedule an email that will deliver the gift card directly to your recipient!
NOTE: If you change your mind, and decide that you would prefer a physical gift card, you are VERY welcome to swing past the Museum to pick one up later. There is no cost, and all the numbers & receipts will still match!
Please rest assured that gift cards purchased for MoPA Thomastown can ALSO be used at other MoPA locations! The only difference between purchasing your gift card from one location versus another is that your gift-card will work through the online checkout for the location it’s purchased from, but manually (via a quick phone call or email) from any alternative MoPA location.

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).
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!
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.
OK, so… We may look like a full pack of pencils, but we’ve always got room for more greatness.
Are you the best Barista in the WORLD? Or the most passionate student of the Early Learning profession in the entire UNIVERSE? ORRR… The loudest advocate of creative learning that this milkyway has ever seen? Well then we’d lurrrrve to meet you!
All the available rolls at MoPA are advertised on our website, but we’d like to call special attention to our barista roll at MoPA Sandringham - the families of Bayside LOVE our coffee, and with your help we’re levelling up up up!! ☕️🍭🍬 xx MoPA
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
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 🏆
