Push Pin Party

August 2, 2018 @ 6:00 pm - August 2, 2018 @ 9:00 pm

You’re Invited to Make MOPA History

The museum is turning 35 and you’re invited to celebrate with us. During our museum inauguration in 1983, we asked you to come pin your pictures on our blank walls. We’re throwing it back this summer with a reboot of the now classic Push Pin Party. And when we say party, we mean it.
We’ll be hosting:
– Live DJ: The Travelers Club
– Hard kombucha pours by Boochcraft
– Local vendors: COOPH, Old Cool Now Vintage Lamps, Norma Hill Designs, & Grato Letterpress
– And your defining masterpiece

Our walls are yours – and you’re the exhibiting artist. Print a photo like it’s ’83 or share it using #makeMOPAhistory, so we print it for you. Arrive on time to make sure you get to pin your own picture to the wall.
