Building a Children’s Museum is a BIG but enormously rewarding journey!
A team of more than 100 incredible designers, architects, engineers, agents, consultants, technicians, carpenters, tilers, plumbers, glaziers, electricians, metalworkers, surveyors, woodworkers, prop makers, artists, craftspeople and painters have all worked in loosely organised chaos for over a year to bring this amazing new Museum to life.
Whilst we’ve still got a LOT of work to do, we expect the new Museum will be ready for a grand opening in November. And the very thought of all your smiling faces running through the door on day one is keeping us massively energised!
If you’re keen to be among the very first birthday parties, excursions, members or casual guests through the doors at MoPA Thomastown, be sure to pop your name on the “GET MOPA THOMASTOWN UPDATES” mailing list (you’ll find the sign up form at the bottom of the Thomastown page on our website).
...Annnnnd if you might be interested in joining the amazing team here at MoPA Thomastown, we’ve now up for opened applications for all the casual and part-time roles. Head over the the “JOBS” section of the website to learn more.
Today we’re launching our new theme “Happy Hearts, Happy Places” (Showing Sep 2 until Oct 12) and this gorgeous new ART HOUSE activity is a part of this theme.
But why “Happy Hearts, Happy Places”? Because developing an understanding of COMMUNITY is one of THE most important early learnings. It helps children feel connected and valued. It helps them form a sense of identity and appreciate others’ perspectives. And, in effect, it empowers children to grow into compassionate, engaged adults who care for one another and the world around us.
The ART HOUSE activity featured in this post is a key part of this new exhibition. Children can make a home, school, coffee shop, library, or any other building or feature of their community that feels important to them.
Seeing this paper bag community come to life is going to be very special…
