The Art of Dress-ups
Exploring the art of Dress ups!
(From Jan 2nd til’ Feb 3rd)
While activities like MoPA’s new “cut and paste dress-ups” may seem like harmless fun, these joyful shenanigans can actually be VERY. Serious. Business…
Children (and sometimes adults!) dress up because it’s just fun, of course. But children also use these make-believe opportunities to experiment with personas and scenarios that reach far beyond regular everyday life. The dress-up games they play enhance their creative skills, and it’s also now proven that children build fundamental social skills through play; and these skills pay dividends well into adult life.
Note: All of MoPA’s activities, and the materials required to participate in them, are all included with all regular tickets.

And Harmony Day is a celebration of this very idea!

“Until I became a grandparent I didn’t understand the love, and just the emotion…”
Grandparents are free at MoPA this summer (3 weeks to go!!) and it has hands-down been the most beautiful environment in the Museums all summer long. The most special part of this time is that what we’re seeing most is 3-generations — all creating beautiful memories together. Grandparents are just visiting with the kiddlybites — it’s a full family affair.
Just. Gorgeous. ❤️
