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…
