Get ready for a pop of pumpkin fun this Halloween! Inspired by Yayoi Kusama’s iconic spotted pumpkins, children are invited to design their very own timber pumpkin.
Wear it as a necklace or hang it up at home - the perfect mix of art, style, and spooooky fun. You do NOT wanna miss THIS one!
An entire year in the making - but it’s finally ready. Can’t WAIT to show you all this incredible Museum!! Please remember to book ahead because all sessions in all our Museums are always operating with our regular comfy capacity limits. x
LITTLE KNOW FACT: MoPA is the exclusive distributor!
For years we witnessed how engaging these beautiful BIG blocks are. We gathered so much evidence in their outcomes, and developed so much belief in their impact, that we eventually decided to establish a manufacturing partnership that would enable us to place the blocks in ALL our Museums. But what we also learned was that all sorts of other schools, museums, galleries, ELCs (even wineries!) would love a set of BIG blocks of their own. So we started to provide BIG blocks to all of these wonderful organisations!
Fast forward to today = MoPA is now the exclusive distributor. We send BIG block sets all over APAC!! And nothing gives us more joy than receiving all the photos of all the creations children are dreaming up.
So... If you’d like a set of blue blocks for YOUR facility, please jump onto the website or give us a shout on 1800 00 66 72 to learn more. xx
Introducing “Patchwork Portraits” NOW SHOWING at MoPA - from OCT 6 right up until NOV 30.
“Emotions and Well-being” is a hugely important component of the Early Years Learning Framework (“EYLF”); and it’s what MoPA’s brand new activities are all about. Every child that visits MoPA this month will be invited to use our craft templates and materials to develop their very own conceptual characters - and then to bring their creations to life using a range of powerfully emotive features.
Happy apples? Grumpy brushes too? Surprised Pops? Maybe... Maybe not. It’s entirely up to you :)
Our past character-building workshops have been HUGE - and we’re positive that “Patchwork Portraits” will be no exception. We can’t wait to see you all at your local MoPA this October!
