“If there’s one thing this world needs, it’s more PLAY and more ART!” ❤️
BREAKING NEWS: Our “$100 off Birthday Parties” promo went absolutely🍌… And so we’ve decided this monkey (the promo!) can hang around a bit longer!! Use the discount code LOVE2PARTY at the checkout. 

All party schedules do typically sell out 4-6 weeks in advance, so be sure to check your preferred avails with some lead time!!

And on a serious note - Times are tough right now for so so many families, and for so many small businesses. And so when we hit on these magical lil’ promos that enable an ‘everybody wins’ scenario — and ultimately, in this instance, the outcome is that a beautiful family enjoy a beautiful, memorable, EPIC birthday party (and perhaps a little respite from the big bad world, even just for a wee bit), then that’s… just… ACE ❤️ x
“Well if this ain’t just the cutest art activity ever, I just dunno what is!?” — PLAYFUL POTS is now showing at all our Museums; and the activity is complimentary for all guests. 

It’s mid-2026. The world is upside down right now. So broken, so uncertain, in so many ways. But MoPA will ALWAYS provide respite from the noise. MoPA will ALWAYS be a place of pure wonder, magical moments, and joy. Our little ones (and us, their oldies) - deserve a moment that’s… Nothing but in the moment. Together as a fam. Let’s make some lovely memories shall we!! xxx 🤪
Cold wet holidays = Big long museum plays!

Please don’t forget to book in for a session, prior to attending. Our Museum’s reach ‘Comfy Capacity’ limits every day during the school holiday periods — booking ahead guarantees we’ll be able to fit you in for a super comfy play. xx
