Socials & Fundraisers at

To support Victorian ELCs and Schools, a limited number of free “Fundraiser Social” nights are now available to book on select evenings throughout the year.

These events have no upfront costs and provide a super fun MoPA-hosted social experience for your families.

Fundraiser Socials require minimal effort on your part but provide a nice boost to your fundraising efforts without interrupting any other planned activities. We also have EFTPOS facilities available if you’re planning a raffle or a silent auction!

Fundraiser Socials are currently booking out 6-4 months in advance. To secure your preferred date, call the MoPA Education Team on 1800 006 672 or email bookings@museumofplayandart.com.au

What do we want? BOOK WEEK!
When do we want it? BOOK WEEK!

(Starts SAT 22nd August @ MoPA)

Reading books to our children, seeing them learn to read by themselves, and then watching their passion for learning through books develop, are among the most magical moments of raising children. This week we celebrate all of this magic and more. Dress up, read with us, and MAKE YOUR VERY OWN BOOK!!! Yasssss!!!
⚠️WARNING⚠️ This is NOT a joke. Our new UBER-great-value “Wonder Club Membership” costs just $28 kids / $18 adults, and then provides you with access to ALL our Museums, ALL year long, for just $6 kids / $4 adults 🎫 ❤️ 🎨 💃 

START SAVING FROM YOUR FIRST RETURN VISIT!!

At this time, sign up for Wonder Club is available until AUG 30, 2026. You do NOT wanna miss this!! xx
Groceries, rent, fuel, bills, mortgages, interest rates… 

All household expenses are out. of. control. 

And as a result, the family outings that were once part of weekly routines are harder to fit into the budget than they ever been.

Regardless of how tough things get, we believe Australian families should NEVER have to sacrifice the amazing cultural experiences that enrich childhood. The zoo. The gallery. The Museum. Time with friends and family, out in our community, being creative, experiencing the world together.

While MoPA can’t control the cost of fuel, or interest rates, what we can do is innovate; create new ways to make our own cultural experiences as affordable as possible…

✨ Introducing: MoPA’s Wonder Club Membership✨

For $28 per child and $18 per adult Wonder Club members can access ALL our Museums, ALL year long for just $6 for children, and $4 for adults.

This VERY affordable annual membership pays for itself on your first return to MoPA, and builds more savings with every visit. The majority of MoPA families visit 4-5 times per year - this new membership will save these families more than $220 per year. ❤️

MoPA “Paper Puppet Pals” starts…… NOW!

Yes it’s a cute tongue twister… But it’s also a new activity starting this weekend (and running ‘til Friday 21 August). We’ll be stuffing, sticking, colouring and creating a cast of wonderfully wacky puppet pals. 

Colourful eyebrows? Fabulous hair? Four noses? We fully support your creative choice 😜 

See you in the studio! 💛
