WE ARE HIRING!!
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 🏆
Hands up if the Art Car is one of your faves 🤚? We’ll choose one hand up, tomorrow (25/2/25) at 5PM Melbourne time, from the comments below, completely at random, and if your name is the one that comes out of the hat you we’ll be sending you over a $100 Gift Voucher to come and lay down the next coat of paint on the Art Car 🎨❤️
PS, Don’t forget — it’s “Forever Young February” at MoPA this month and you still have a few days to enjoy FREE entry for Grandparents!! xx

In February we are going to have some very special days at MoPA to celebrate Victoria’s enormous Chinese community.
Chinese Community Days: Mon 17th Feb in Sandringham Wed 19th Feb in Thomastown Fri 21st Feb in Geelong
We will dance at our dance party to Chinese childrens music, our books will be read in chinese languages, and even our signage will be translated. So if you’d like to get together with other families of the Chinese community, we’ll see you down here at MoPA! We expect these days to be very popular, but we do only have limited space available, so please be sure to jump online and book now to secure your spot. See you all then!
